Wow it has been 17 days since surgery.  I have not wrote an entry for a little while because it was pretty much more of the same thing.  I hate the idea of taking precription pain meds so I am trying to wean myself off the pain meds. They make me nausea and so I have to take them with another medication zofran which helps.  I tried just taking and over the counter medications but I have to admit the pain drives me back to the prescription medications.  The pain is especially bad when I have bicep spasms. Using the cold therapy unit helps. I also get these weird sensations sometimes when I turn or change position like the shoulder is trying to dislocate with a grinding feeling.  It hurts a lot and scares me that something else is wrong.
