desmobob Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 They didn't kill me. Hurts like a SOB. Pain is God's way of letting you know you're still alive. Glad you're still with us! Hope you make a quick recovery and the repairs were a success. Tight lines, Bob 1 Quote
Super User Bankbeater Posted November 19, 2015 Super User Posted November 19, 2015 Hang in there. How long do you wear the sling? 1 Quote
Super User slonezp Posted November 19, 2015 Author Super User Posted November 19, 2015 5 weeks So far so good today. As long as i dont move its not so bad. They have a morphine party ball clipped onto the sling. Plus the painkillers its not so bad. I have a follow up with the doc Friday. Ill find out exactly what he did. 2 Quote

Super User slonezp Posted November 22, 2015 Author Super User Posted November 22, 2015 yesterday was rough. today, not too bad as of now. medication induced dreams are quite realistic. I spent my early morning driving around in a yellow mazda Miata convertible trying to locate my tundra so I could tow the boat to the lake. Never found the tundra Doc said everything went back together well. A lot of scar tissue was removed. the lower trapezius muscle was torn off.. the repairs should alleviate the constant headaches. getting the staples removed a week from Monday. they have me in a sling with a wedge in it. need to wear it constant for the first 4 weeks. PT starts after that. Thanks for the well wishes. 2 Quote
Super User Bankbeater Posted November 22, 2015 Super User Posted November 22, 2015 I had the wedge too. On the coldest day of the season I couldn't get my coat closed because of it. Take it easy and have a speedy recovery. Quote
