Evening all, I'm having an operation tomorrow on my shoulder (arthroscopy)
not looking forward to it at all!
I know it will be worth it when everything heals etc but it still doesn't stop me worrying.
The good thing is, its in a private hospital paid for by the nhs.
I will have my own room- en suite, it looks more like a hotel and the staff are brilliant.
I will be out of action for a few days then physio will start so I can get movement back straight away.
Will let you know how I get on in case anyone else is having the same op in the future.
Wish me luck.

Nice to know I'm not alone, better get off to bed now got an early start.

Hi Lilly,
I had the same operation on my right shoulder an arthroscopy 4 years ago, also privately. I had frozen shoulder and bone spurs which had to be shaved off.
My consultant had me in physio the next day...that I do remember as painful so, make sure you take any pain relief offered before you start the physio and you'll be fine.
I had a good range of movement 2 wks after so was well worth it.
Best of luck, love and hugs xxx'grá agus solas'
