[QUOTE="anna29, post: 337885, member: 30936"] Hi iHs ... Thanks for your interesting reply. What is an MUA ? out of interest . Didnt they try cortisone injections with your frozen shoulder ? Are you asleep during a nerve block ? If not - wonder if can be sedated ? They did say I would be put in a sling for a bit after the op to prevent me hurting my arm with it flopping about . Good point you have raised about - taking my blood sugar levels and doing the insulin shots... Will ask for the nurse[s] to assist me with these, hard to do one handed :eh: Will try to get all my glucose tabs/biscuits/jelly babies,juice etc - set up pre-prepared before the op. Its awkward now as a diabetic to go into hospital for any treatment/surgery isnt it ? Not as easy as used to be - just in and out without having to think about the diabetes maintenance required! More complex and forward planning needed. Hana - this is what concerns me - they give me good patient care and diabetes help/care during ... Will certainly let you know how it transpires . As its ages [years] 2008 since last in hospital with pneumonia/then contracted a septis infection. Do they actually have diabetic menu's? available? reliable to use? Have visions of both my hubby and mother bringing in my favorite lite bite meals. I have filled in the Hospital Passport ready to take in . [can keep this with me am told] They have said they will all work together as a team to plan the best options for me... This is positive for me - and they are giving me choice[s] with things too . Am nervous as the last time was in hospital - I became diabetic as results of the serious infections I had !!! :thumbdown: So I am dreading it all , they understand my fears as it was impacted from the pneumonia/septis. Had septis 4 or 5 times now according to my mother :problem: I even suggested leaving things be - was told it would end up with me losing, much use of my left shoulder and arm. Tendon is at risk of being torn/ripped apart left as it is. So will just have to be brave and get it done! Anna.[/s][/s] [/QUOTE]
