She is on the mend, and doing lots better. At the PT place they removed the large bandages, and now just tape over the staples in two spots. They removed the sling, and showed her some exercises to do at home. It frees up her left hand a lot for basic functions, like opening a pill bottle, or putiing on lotion. It made it way easier for the sponge bath.
Yesterday she was feeling a little nausea so she called the doctor's office. They prescribed some anti-nausea pills. The pharmacist said it will likely cause her to feel sleepy. Boy, did it. She was asleep in zombie sleep, in her chair for most of yesterday afternoon and evening. Then we got her ready for night time and she said she slept very hard. So she will take just a half of one of these pills today. She is down to one pain pill every 6 hours. The bottle said one or two every 4 to 6 hours, so is is ahead of that pain. She fells much better. And her shoulder already hurts less than before the surgery. Something for sure to be Thankful about.
Happy Thanksgiving!
