After surgery

Wednesday February 10th, I had surgery on my left shoulder. The surgeon removed spurs and did find a tear in the cuff and had to repair it. Therefore my recovery is being a little slower than it normally would have been. It is also much more painful. The doctor did put a block in and for the first 18 hours I had a dangling left arm. It was very funny feeling to look down and see my arm just sling around and it also looked almost unreal. However, I should be on my way to recovery. I have a checkup this Thursday.

 

I was suppose to do a sleep study tonight and tomorrow but I am going to postpone it till I am feeling better. I don't want anything interfering with the test.
