I feel so sorry for your experience with the anesthesia... I had that once, it was awful. But the good thing is you're through the worst of it and on the way to recovery!

Yea!!!

So sorry for the nausea, etc. I had that once....ugh. Mine was post-anasthesia projectile puking, and I learned that there really is such a thing as projectile vomit

Hope you feel much better soon, and your new shoulder works out great!

so glad all went well.

i got sick every time they gave me sodium pentahol (sp?) but no fuss no muss when they switched me to valium

hopefully you won't need another surgery, but if you do... ask your anesthesiologist next time

onehanded. My father used to take great photos despite having no arms. He used a mouth release cable, or sometimes setting the time delay timer with his toe first...

May your recovery be swift.

Welcome back!

I trust you will take it easy and watch some MSNBC while recuperating. If you saw today's "The Cycle" if you watched VERY closely, you might have gotten a glimpse of one or two of my delegation at the show:

Now I can go back to worrying about another DUer, WCGreen I think is his name, the one with the double lung transplant. Why, CP, it's going to take more than a bum shoulder and some nasty anesthesia to keep you down.

Glad you're doing well, dear heart! Here's a kiss for your boo-boo

When they get you started, make sure you do your PT religiously. If you have a place at home you can screw a small pulley into the ceiling, you can run a rope thru it and use your good arm to pull the hand of the bad one up to the ceiling for range of motion. That is one of the most important things. They will also have you climb the wall with you fingers until you hand is over your head and arm is parallel with the wall. It will make you want to cry but do it anyway.

Best of luck to you, glad you came thru it well.

Peg

I've seen your picture
Your name in lights above it
This is your big debut
It's like a dream come true
And when you smile for the camera
I know they're gonna love it

I like your pin shot
I keep it with your letter
Done up in blueprint blue
It sure looks good on you
So won't you smile for the camera
I know I'll love you better

Peg
It will come back to you
Peg
It will come back to you
Then the shutter falls
You see it all in 3-D
It's your favorite foreign movie

take it easy with recovery. I know joint pain (arthritis) but I haven't had to have any surgery yet. So far just various injections. That is bad enough so you are definitely in my thoughts. Sending lots of healing vibes ~~
