I'm 5 days out from surgery and doing pretty good. I have just a simple sling, which was enough of a problem (sharp pains from jostling when I move) that I ordered other slings to try. By the time they arrived, the pain was already lessening. My dr prescribed oxy to be taken while alternating acetaminophen and ibuprofen. I didn't take any oxy today or yesterday. I have a nerve block pump going until I take it out tomorrow. May need more oral pain relief without it. But I get to shower!! once the block catheter is out of my neck. I may just spend the whole day in the shower.
