Thank you Hoss. I appreciate the prayers my friend. A great opportunity to grow closer to the Lord.
Surgery was a success. 2 hours long, fixed the tear, shaved some frayed edges and shaved off 6 bone spurs. All wrapped up feeling woozy but good. They used a nerve blocker to minimize pain worked great they said it would last up to 24 hours. Thanks for all the prayers. I'll keep you posted.
Thanks brother. I tried the bed and I'm typing this at 12:55 am so yes tomorrow I'm trying the recliner. Lol

Nerve blocker wearing off. In need of prayer brothers. As an ex addict the idea of narcotics scares me. Thanks
Stay ahead of the pain brother, 800mg of ibuprofen and 2 caps of Tylenol is the equivalent of a Vicodin without the narcotics or sides of Vicodin...try it and keep the ice on and off throughout the day. Need to just stay on top of it brother...and yes prayers coming.
Praise the Lord! Best thing I personally found for the pain was ice packs. 20-30 minutes on; rest a little bit; 20-30 minutes back on. I didn't find the meds did that good. Two Fentanyl shots, Vicodin, nerve blockers, and muscle relaxers didn't really help.... it was the ice. Recliner or couch (sleeping upright position) is the only way to go. I started PT just 4-days later and that really helped too. Hope you get to feeling better bro, I'm praying for ya; a safe, speedy recovery.
Happy Resurrection Day! Without the resurrection the cross is meaningless. All praise and honor and glory are yours Jesus. Hope everyone is having a great day.
