Another update. Shoulder doing great. Good movement, still a little sore, but almost good as new. This Friday, I go in for another heart procedure. This one to fix a hole I have between chambers. VSD or something like that. This hole reduces the oxygenated blood my heart sends through my body. Procedure isn't a big deal, they go in through the big artery in the groin, but still not fun to have people poking around in the heart. So, another prayer please, and hopefully, this will start to correct some of the other heart issues.
Just found this tread and read it all. Hope and pray all goes well. Technology is great, but it all comes from the grace of God.
Just an FYI to anyone with a shoulder injury. Get it looked at ASAP. Don't tough it out, and figure it will get better on its own. If you have a bad tear, it can athrophy to the point the it can never be stiched back together. At age 51, I basically have no right rotator cuff because I was a dumbass. The doctors look at my MRI and just shake their heads. It's an old injury that I recently made worse and it is far beyond repair and way beyond any physical therapy. Mark. I'm glad you were smart enough to do something about it.
You got it my friend. Keep you r head up and push on. As to the shoulder injury I have the same injury suffered on the job but City doctors see no reason for surgery. I am left with either doing it on my own at greast cost 3000.00 deductable and 20%, sue to get the surgery, live with it. I have very limited strength in my left arm and cannot even put shave cream on my face left handed.. I guess I need to just get it done and sue the city.
Thanks everybody. Just made it home and hopefully, no more surgeries this year. Ugh. And maybe I will finally be able to get working on the red car again and get it back running. This time, they repaired a hole in my heart between the chambers. ASD or Atrial septal defect. It lets blood pass from one side to the other. I still have numerous other heart issues, but at least this one is fixed. None of us ever know what tomorrow brings. And I might outlive everybody on this forum. So let this be a reminder to be thankful for what you have today and share the blessings. Ready for a year away from doctors, hospitals and money flying out of my wallet!
