Had surgery on my shoulder and my knee last Thursday. I can't walk or move my right arm. This sucks. My wife has been an absolute savior. She's done everything for me to make my life easy. She brings me food in the recliner.

besides the pain, the biggest drawback is that I'm not supposed to drink while taking percoset.

Not always thinking the clearest and my writing may be a little convoluted. Did I mention the painkillers?

percocet and etoh is not a good mix even if all you're driving is that recliner. good luck with your recovery. actually, i'm kinda surprised they did both a knee and a shoulder at the same time. usually due to physical therapy requirements, they do one first , then the other. just seems like the pt/rehab time will take longer with you having to support two different body parts while doing the exercises. sure hope i'm wrong and you recover quickly.

I feel your pain. I had to have both knees worked on at the same time back in '95 due to a car wreck. Praying for a complete and speedy recovery.

Does the recliner have a hole in the seat? That's what I'd want if I can't walk and someone brings me food. Or a liquid diet and a gallon jug.

With all the drugs I'm on I finally can understand where you're coming from. As a side note, if you argue with the voices in your head, can you still be wrong?

I still sneak an occasional bump. It makes my head buzz and thats not an expression. It actually feels like it's vibrating.

I did get lucky. She's a hell of a woman.

The percoset binds you up so you don't have to worry about taking to many trips to the potty.

It actually is gov't health care (my wife works for the state and her benefits are better than mine).

I'm starting a new job in Jan so I had to get everything done before the new employment opportunity. On the bright side, I am taking a substantial pay cut.
