At the hospital

-
They reserved a room just in case, but expect her to go home today.
-
Hope the recovery is is quick and easy.
-
Best wishes to Mrs Tuner!
BTW I also had never heard of this procedure.
-
Best wishes for quick and comfortable recovery!
-
And we're home. Now for healing and recovery.
-
Wow. That's amazing. (Gentle) hugs for MrsTuner. And regular hugs for you.
-
Glad she's all done and you're back home! I'm sure you're both relieved!
Best wishes for a speedy recovery! -
Went to a surgeon for a replacement. He said he could fix the shoulder instead.
He could not fix and said so. I do therapy and get by.Hope she enjoys the shoulder. That may take a while.
-
It is her right (dominant) side, so that will present some challenges! They used a nerve block, so no pain, but also hardly any movement on that arm yet - just numb. I think that bothers her more than pain...
-
Oh dear, that will probably be frustrating for a while!
-
How is the patient doing?
-
The block has worn off so she is feeling sore and achy. Keeping it cool almost 24 hours with an Iceman. Good to have use of her arm/hand again. Just hanging out today - maybe get out for a short walk tomorrow? Ok to take off the sling inside, but supposed to wear it when going out. Followup visit in a couple of weeks before starting PT.
-
Best wishes for a quick recovery for her! I also didn’t know this was a thing!
-
Hope she recovers quickly!
-
Hope she is better.
Had a spinal block for and ankle break in 1991. I could take to hops to a bathroom to pee. The first time my hand could feel myself, but myself could not feel my hand. That was scary.
-
Did you buy the ice machine or are you renting it from a medical supply company? Asking for a friend...
-
How is recovery going?
-
We have 2 ice machines now - one was from a couple of years ago. Both the same unit, so I can load them both and she can swap as needed when I am gone for a while. Improving each day, but still swelling in the arm and lots of bruising that should start fading. She's doing more each day, so that's good!
-
All in all, this sounds good Ron. I’m sure she’s pretty uncomfortable, but hopefully that will improve quickly!
