Thanks. The first tear happened 10 or so years ago benching 120s. Back then the doc said I needed surgery. I refused to have surgery. But I was able to get it healed up to where I was benching dumbells again and doing dips. Then on new years eve, I was throwing an old door onto a bonfire and it mu8st have ripped everything to shreds. The pain is so deep and unrelenting, unlike any other injury Ive had and I am one month post injury and the pain level is still off the charts.
I have to figure out what I am going to do. I have no health insurance. I got a free MRI this week because I know them. I have to accept that I have to have surgery soon or live in pain 24/7 forever.
I always pay with cash when I go to the doctor, but hell if I know what It will cost to hav e major shoulder surgery. Maybe they will work out a payment plan for me. LOL
Wonder how long the recovery is for that type surgery?
