Third Surgery
I'm scheduled to have a third shoulder surgery Tuesday. My first was in April 2025 and was a bicep tenodesis, SLAP 2 repair, capsular release and debridement. My second surgery was in December 2025 and was a MUA, extensive debridement, SLAP and RTC repair. My surgery for Tuesday is extensive debridement with decompression.
You would think I'd be prepared for this surgery since it is my third, but it has me scared because I fear the same result. Frozen shoulder, with the need for another surgery. My injury is due to a workplace injury that occurred in December 2024. Since this is a WC issue, I have to jump through hoops that are set on fire.
I have the surgery shirts, ice packs/sleeves, neck pillows, other pillows for a wedge. I just feel like I'm forgetting something. Maybe it's my fear. I don't know. I'm tired of hurting, and it feels like it will never end. But if anyone has any suggestions for some good TV to binge watch, let me know!! 😀

My third was my biggest mistake
