Thanks for the kind thoughts and wishes.<br />
<br />
As you can see by the hour of this post the "block" that they put in the shoulder has worn off. So now it's down to just the pills. It's still much better than the last time I had this done. Didn't sleep for three days that time, but I might just get in a nap after I take the next pain meds at 1AM. <br />
<br />
Should be good enough to take everybody's money at the check in for our next shoot, but beyond that I don't think I'll be doing much. Apparently it was messed up bad enough to keep the sturgeon at it for two hours rather than the normal half hour to an hour that they spend doing the job. I wonder if I'll get charged extra for the additional time he spent digging around in the shoulder?
Who knows, they might charge your time on the table by the minute like a taxi meter. The main thing (besides the consideration of if you've got good doctors/surgeons and insurance) is that everything went well and as expected and that you're already on the mend. Hope that process is speedy for you and allows you to rapidly get back to "normal" - whatever that may be in your case. <img src='http://www.goodguysposse.org/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/crazy.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':crazy:' /> <br />

All the best.

There's this sticky stuff called Tegaderm that you can buy at those hospital supply stores. It's a clear film that ya sticks right over yer wound, or yer sutures, or whatever ya got. Keeps the water out real nice like, and peels off clean without no pain. Add a loofa on a stick and ya can even get places where tha sun don't shine too often.. I started showering the day after my surgery...

<br /> Thanks Steve, I was gonna try the plastic food wrap and some of that clear packaging tape, but I'll send the wife out for some of the stuff you're talking about on Monday. She's already complaining that I'm getting a little ripe. <br />
<br />
By the way DD where did you hide the cameras to get my picture? Be glad you don't have smell-a-vision. And don't my blue eyes look pretty in the picture?

Then, some time around midnight, it wore off...
Then the fun begins... Actually I'm doing much better than the last time. <img src='http://www.goodguysposse.org/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/good.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':good:' /> I took the last dose of Norco with a side order of Naproxen. <img src='http://www.goodguysposse.org/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wacko.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':wacko:' /> As I type in this post I actually feel better than I did before the surgery. I have to be impaired at this point or I wouldn't be on the web site and posting. <img src='http://www.goodguysposse.org/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/crazy.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':crazy:' /> <br />

Boredom is not the emotion you expect after this surgery. Just wish I could get in the shower cause I'm starting to smell like a goat.
<br />

Mike, when will you have your operation? If the 2nd, then you already had it a week ago. <img src='http://www.goodguysposse.org/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/pokey.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':pokey:' /> <br />
