@anncgrl : I’m a day late, had not checked this topic for a few days. Hope the surgery went well, and that you enjoyed the nerve block while it lasted. Regarding clothing: lose, front button or front zip items are easiest. I only had shoulder “repair” surgeries, not replacement, but some of the limitations I think are similar. Big t-shirts also work, if you know the trick: first “open” the top of your sling while resting your arm on a pillow or your lap, so it’s stable. Slip your right hand/arm into the sleeve, pulling the whole t-shirt, bunched up, all the way to your shoulder. Pull over head next. Re-secure sling. Put left arm through other armhole, and pull down. Sounds more complicated than it is, really. By the second surgery I had it down pat. And for bra’s: forget the front opening ones. Just pick one of your more casual, looser, older ones. Lay it around your waist, sitting down, with the hooks in front of your stomach. Close the hooks (since your hands will be in or near your lap, that is ok even with the sling). Use your good arm to turn the bra around so it is facing the correct way, and inch it up. Gently loop the bra strap over the “bad” shoulder (sling also needs to loosened or off while supporting arm, for a few seconds), follow suit with the good arm. Adjust and ‘tuck in” as necessary. Caution: I have no idea how big and where exactly the scar(s) from shoulder replacement are located - mine were just 3 small incisions, so you may not be able to wear a bra for a while. However, the technique is still helpful for later in your recovery, since it will be a long time until you can get your arms behind your back.
