Good luck, Sir. Please take the physical therapy seriously. It will help you regain mobility and strength.
Surgery went fine. At home resting. Right arm feels like a dead fish...lol
The feeling will come back with a vengeance! Mine did. Hope you heal up well.Surgery went fine. At home resting. Right arm feels like a dead fish...lol

Good luck! I had the rotator cuff repair a few years ago. I had waited too long so they couldn’t fix the detached bicep.
Three little holes. But a tip - if they give you a nerve blocker and also some pills for when it wears off, take the pills! I didn’t, and when the blocker wore off it was really bad.
Rough night. Couldn't get comfortable for anything.
And when the nerve block fully wore off around 1am...OH MY GOD, the pain brought tears to my eyes.
And I was 2 doses into the Percocet...i cant imagine the intensity if I had not started it when I did.
Not to bad at the moment...about nap time.
So if they can't fix a detached bicep what does that mean? You can't lift or pull anything with that arm that involves your biceps?
Yep when the nerve block wears off it is rough. At least you had some decent pain med's. I thought was going to die the pain was so bad. I had my surgery on a friday. I was popping the med's prescribed to me at every interval. On Monday my wife called Dr's office and told the nurse I needed more I was in so much pain. The nurse flipped out and said I had already taken to much. Wife told her the med's were not working. The nurse looked up what was prescribed to me and apologized to my wife. They had basically prescribed me Tylenol. She had the Dr prescribe me some deladine I think and I made it through. Hang in their, it get's better. The surgery really helped me with my shoulder pain. I would advise you do take the PT seriously when you start it.
