an hour and a half into NBM and I'm dying for a brew!! I'm really nervous as I've never had any surgery before but am so hopeful today will be the start of a proper recovery!
hope everyone is having as pain free a day as possible!

is it any better at the 6 week post op.
what was your surgery for?
mine was a rotator cuff tear but that had also caused frozen shoulder, no range at all and constant aching pain.
since the op I still have that constant aching pain....I hope it goes away, although I only had surgery 4 days ago. So I have a ways yo go and then like you said there is physio...yuk yuk yuk 😩

Mine was classic frozen shoulder - 5 months of misery, like you I had no movement at all, surgeon took one look and said forget physio, distillitation etc. it is surgery for you, I was terrified and relieved at the same time. I was also getting pain in the other shoulder, so he did arthroscopic on left shoulder and mua on right. Since the op it has been so much better.
Bit by bit, day by day you will start to get stronger, sometimes it feels like one step forward and two steps back, I set myself tiny challenges each week, sometimes I achieve it sometimes I dont, but it helps me to keep motivated.
It is funny, but the weeks fly by once you have the op and you will hopefully see some relief soon from the pain. It took at least a week for me to not need pain relief during the day (still needed it at night) and now and again I still need the odd nurofen, headache, neck ache etc. but so much better than the way I was before.
Hope you continue to improve, remember it takes time and rest for the body to recover after months of trauma.
Sending you happy vibes for a speedy recovery. xxx
