Hi has anyone had an operation to repair a torn rotator cuff?
I have read some blogs online & they are a bit worrying added to what I have been told at the Hospital.
I live alone & am expected to magic up from somewhere someone to be with me at home after the op as sent home on the day. Then having to wear a sling for anything upto 6 weeks after the op. When I asked how I would manage dressing, washing ( no shower allowed) cooking, looking after my two cats, I was told the cats would 'have to be sorted'?? Meaning what? Also that she was sure my family would 'rally round'! My brother has to have a hip replacement operation in two weeks time so no help there. My son& daughter in law live 20+ miles away, have 2 children & work to pay their mortgage so how can they help? There is no-one else! Anyone else been in a similar position with having this operation & no aftercare. Tips on how to manage if anyone has please?
