They mold nicely to the different contours. Even if you don't think the cold is getting through the splint it probably is. Especially if you leave it on for the 20 minutes.<br /><br />If the pain isn't too bad try cutting the vicodin in half. It should help with the sleepiness. Sometimes taking a half now and the other half in an hour or so helps the sleepiness also.Robin (RsIslandCrafts)https://www.blogger.com/profile/06875986169322073281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-116061752441257596.post-40891882903132883552010-06-24T13:42:56.227-07:002010-06-24T13:42:56.227-07:00Glad you are back!

The pain meds made it tough to concentrate enough to read<br />(it seemed like I kept re-reading the same paragraph over and over.)<br />Maybe some movie DVD's or books on tape would help keep you from being too bored. Good luck with the recovery. My biggest problem<br />was with the fact that my left arm<br />seemed much shorter than my right arm when it came to wiping my butt.<br />But one does survive!<br />ArleneArlene Ferrignohttp://adjquilter@verizon,netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-116061752441257596.post-79726525815379477722010-06-24T06:22:54.567-07:002010-06-24T06:22:54.567-07:00Kim,

My advice is getting one of those wrist supports for the mouse pad. I picked mine up at Joanns. It's made by Dritz. I think it is wonderful. After my bandages came off, my hand/arm would ache after using the computer for a few minutes, but this little support is great.Patriciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05253839272611057807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-116061752441257596.post-3500817803124871342010-06-24T04:26:35.799-07:002010-06-24T04:26:35.799-07:00She's ALIVE....YEah.....knew you'd make it...She's ALIVE....YEah.....knew you'd make it through surgery...and I bet you're glad I didn't make any jokes about going under the knife and your doctor being the Joker from Batman...bet you're glad aren't ya....Kelly Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18435791729143433819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-116061752441257596.post-40617623274559634672010-06-24T04:26:20.891-07:002010-06-24T04:26:20.891-07:00So not washing the armpit means you can't shav...So not washing the armpit means you can't shave it either and that means you'll have to beware of the HAIRY PIT EVENT.....lol!
