Day 7: Confirming Left Shoulder Surgery

Surgery on my left shoulder has been confirmed for tomorrow morning. It will be the same complete rebuild that was done on my right shoulder. 

I just finished meeting with the anesthesiologist to talk through the plan again. 

My blood platelet levels have gone back up and the blood infection is going away so they're not concerned moving forward. 

Unfortunately I've been experiencing a lot of discomfort today so we've had to stay strict on the pain meds every 2 hours. My father-in-law was surprised that I'm able to handle as much as they're giving me but I guess my body is handling it mostly well. 

Once we get through the shoulder surgery I'll meet with the neurosurgeon again to figure out the plan for the rest of the week.
