AnnCrystal No...not during your Birthday Month. 🙏🏼 Heal well 💝💝💝. 3d

Amiable Ugh! I had rotator-cuff surgery about 10 years ago. Do you have a recliner? That was the most comfortable place to sleep for the first 8 weeks afterwards. 3d

dabbe @TheBookHippie #thistooshallpassright #right? 😅 3d

dabbe @AmyG My primary doc would tell me that my body's letting me know I'm alive. #oy 🙄 3d

dabbe @Susanita #metoo (not the movement, well, you know!) 😂 2d

dabbe @AnnCrystal IKR? #woeisme or is it #woeisi? 🤔 😅 2d

dabbe @Amiable No, I don't. 😩 Think I'll have to start looking for one. 😅 2d

JenlovesJT47 Ugh I‘m sorry! I have labral tears in both shoulders (and possibly my hip I dislocated 😣) so I know it‘s rough. Wishing you a successful surgery with many excellent books to keep you company afterwards. Dunno what I would have done all these years if I hadn‘t been working at an ortho doctors‘ office since I was 13 😆 (my mom works there still!!). 2d

AmyG Your primary doc needs a better bedside manner! 🤣 2d

TheBookHippie @Amiable oh yah I second the recliner!! 2d

ChaoticMissAdventures Oh no!! That sounds so painful. I hope they can get you in soon and that it goes well. 2d

IriDas Ugh, sounds terrible. I hope the surgery is successful 2d

TheBookgeekFrau That just sucks 😖 2d

dabbe @JenlovesJT47 Are you just living with your tears? 😱 I can't even imagine. And what can be done with your dislocated hip? Do you hope it pops back into place? 😱 I'm feeling for ya! 💙 2d

dabbe @AmyG He's a wee bit younger. The bastard. 😂 2d

dabbe @TheBookHippie @Amiable Good to know! Any recommendations? 2d

dabbe @ChaoticMissAdventures I don't even get in to see him to chat about stuff until 7/22. Luckily, I have some pain meds. 😅 2d

dabbe @IriDas TY! 💙 2d

dabbe @TheBookgeekFrau It does. But I'm still above the ground and not underneath it, so that's a plus! 😅 2d

TheBookHippie @dabbe I had frozen shoulder, but it‘s a lazy boy- friend currently borrowing -it but I made sure the material didn‘t make me too hot! 2d

Leftcoastzen Sorry you have to go through that ! 2d

dabbe @TheBookHippie So no leather, right? 😂 2d

dabbe @Leftcoastzen TY! Another right of passage to being older and letting your German shepherd chase a bird and drag you to the ground. 😅 2d

Susanita Did you throw too many curve balls? 😉 2d

lil1inblue Oh, my! 😱 I hope that the surgery goes well and that you heal swiftly! But hopefully, you'll get some good guilt-free reading time! 2d

Amiable @TheBookHippie @dabbe I commandeered my husband‘s for the duration, to his dismay. 😄 I think it was a La-Z Boy also. We don‘t have it anymore. Which arm are you doing? Make sure that you can reach the lever with your good side! 😬 2d

Amiable Oh, also make sure to have a selection of big shirts that button up the front because you won‘t be putting your arm through a sleeve for a while. 2d

ShelleyBooksie Oh no! Boo on doggy related injuries! Sending you healing vibes ♡♡♡ 2d

JenlovesJT47 @dabbe thanks for asking! A dislocation didn‘t show on x-rays so I had to get an MRI. Seeing the doc next week. He thinks I might have a labral tear in my hip. That would be my luck for sure! Crutches kill me so I‘ve altered my gait & walk on my tiptoes on that side. Not fun. Sorry, that was probably more information than you were looking for! 😅 2d

Amiable And ask the surgeon when you can start PT —as soon as possible to avoid frozen shoulder if you can. Ask about passive PT where the therapist moves your slack arm around for you. 2d

AvidReader25 I‘m so sorry! Praying the surgery goes well! 2d

Librarybelle Oh no! 2d

AnnCrystal @dabbe I will leave this to the teacher 😂💝💝💝. 2d

Sarahreadstoomuch I‘m so sorry! 2d

Texreader 🙁 I sure hope you‘re doing ok and that surgery is successful. I hear it‘s all about the rehab. 2d

Chrissyreadit ugh! No Bueno!!! I was able to use PT only for mine (thankful no surgery)and agree good PT is huge! hope your pain is not too much 2d

Bookwormjillk Oh no! I agree with @Amiable on the rehab. It‘s torture but helpful torture. My other suggestion is to get yourself a back scratcher. Hope you can get it taken care of soon! 2d

CBee @dabbe sounds like when my GYN told me to “ride it out” after I explained all of my menopause symptoms. Butthead. 2d

TheBookHippie @Amiable YES PT!!!!! 2d

dabbe @Susanita As if I could! No, Pip dragged me to the ground chasing a damn bird. 😅 2d

dabbe @lil1inblue That's the plus to it all! TY. 💙🩵💙 2d

dabbe @Amiable Another good point! It's my right one, the one I do everything with, of course! I can still move it, just not in certain directions. 😅 2d

dabbe @Amiable Holy guacamole! TY! I don't have any button-ups; they're all pullovers. Here's a plus: time to go shopping! 😂 2d

dabbe @ShelleyBooksie TY! 💙🩵💙 2d

dabbe @AnnCrystal I think it's “Woe is I“ because if you put the sentence in the correct order of subject before verb, you say, “I am woe.“ Now that I've just done that, I should have said “Woe AM I.“ I need to review my grammar! 😅 2d

dabbe @Texreader You instantly reminded me of Amy Winehouse's “Rehab.“
Obviously for very different reasons. TY! 💙🩵💙 2d

dabbe @Chrissyreadit We'll see what his final opinion is, but the fact that there are two tears makes my primary doc think surgery would be better. Based on the f-in' big beautiful bill, I better get this done soon. 😅 TY for the kind words, m'dear. 💙🩵💙 2d

Chrissyreadit fingers and toes crossed! 2d

dabbe @Bookwormjillk I am starting to make a list! Backscratcher: #mostexcellent TY 🩵💙🩵 2d

TheBookgeekFrau @dabbe Truth!! And here's to it staying that way for a long time! 🥂💜 2d

dabbe @CBee ESPECIALLY if your GYN was a female. 😤😂 2d

dabbe @Chrissyreadit Definitely not shoulders! 🥰 2d

CBee @dabbe nope, it‘s a dude. Too bad cause he was pretty cool before he said that 😂🫣🤪 2d

dabbe @CBee Well, not only is that a dick-downer-for-women, but #patriarchylives even with the best of 'em! 2d

julieclair Ugh. Hope you‘re not in too much pain while you wait to get it fixed, and your healing is smooth and speedy. 💙💙💙 2d

Butterfinger I hate that. Keep us posted on your journey to feel better. 2d

dabbe @Meshell1313 TY! 💙🩵💙 2d

DebinHawaii Oh ouch! I am so sorry. Getting older really sucks sometimes. I will think healing thoughts. 💙💙💙 2d

dabbe @DebinHawaii I'm so happy you said “older“ and not “old“! 😂 That means I still have lots of years left, right? 💙🩵💙 2d

DebinHawaii @dabbe Hah! 😂 I hope so—for both of us! 💙💙💙 2d

RosePressedPages The same thing happened to my dad a little while ago. He‘s still in a sling. Here‘s to hoping you‘ll have a speedy recovery 💙 14h
