That sounds a lot to cope with all at once. What are they doing with your shoulder?

Sounds like you may need a lot of help, but you won't know until you've had the ops done. Hope you can get something sorted. Best of luck. x

Good call by yor hospital! I did not know, but hoped that you were consulting with a team that offerred such home care. I was visited by a home care physical therapist after my hip replacement and those visits were very helpful for a fast recovery.

Good luck!
