Really sorry I've been mia for a while had a lot going on the last 6months, things had become increasingly hard and have been kinda depressed trying to manage things and money and working as much as possible but still not cutting it..So here we are again.. had surgery on my left shoulder and bicep. (Been dealing with this since nov2020) Some damage to the labrum , the supraspinatus was 90% torn, totally off the top of the bone ( rear top 1/4) . Also performed a bicep tenodisis and cleaned up some other stuff all left side. Been dealing with this for some time. Was suppose to have this surgery back in the beginning of June but was in a car accident that fractured my 5th rib on easter so everything was pushed.
back ..
I will try and give updates of therapy and exercises, supplementation, and full recovery details..
I will be starting back on my trt. I will use heal from IML and kratom for pain.
The nerve block was a disaster... Couldn't get it. Couldnt locate the roots or find it...idk but I had to lay there with my head back to the side for almost 40 minutes. While he stuck and restuck my neck and dug around trying to find it.. he withdrew that needle 3or 4 times that I remember. It must of become very dull because he couldn't push it back through and into my neck.. they come back three times waiting for me in the operating room. Til he gave up and said he would just give me more along the nerve..
Woke up after. Had a hard time breathing. Diaphragm was numb do to the extra meds could only take a half breaths.. was there for about 4 hrs after surgery do to this issue. They released me anyway. Went in at 9am didn't leave until 6pm. Surgery was Friday the 9th. Had some issues had to use my nebulizer to help with breathing. Lasted for almost 2 days..til I was able to breath normally again.
Feet ankle and lower leg swelled that Monday BP jumped up pretty high had to go to the cardiologist. Gave me meds for water reduction and bp. Since COVID and I was hospitalized over a yr ago I've been seeing a cardiologist I have a small section of my heart that has scar tissue on it and doesn't function...
Anyway I started my therapy yesterday. Will keep everyone updated ..
