Title: Surgery Pt II
Post by: FernandoDuarte on January 11, 2012, 06:55:48 PM
So, haven't spoke a lot about it, but I'm just to go to the knife again...

This time things get a little bit serious, it's a tenodesis. Basically they'll cut my biceps, make a hole on the bone of the neck, insert the biceps and bolt it pretty much like a telecaster  :lol:  :|

I'm a little bit afraid of losing movement capacity, etc... But all doctors I've talked said it won't have this problem, so gotta do it... On the lest months the pain on my shoulder is increasing bad, last 2 weeks I felt like my arm was going to fall apart anywhere...

So this Friday afternoon I'm doing surgery again... Estimated time to start physical thepapy = 1 month after surgery...

So, wish me luck!

Sheesh... I was wondering how it was getting on a while back, seeing as you hadn't said anything...

Hope it goes well, we'll be thinking about you...

Good luck.

I could ask for pics to prove that it happened but feel that may be in bad taste!

... bolt it pretty much like a telecaster 

Can I be the first to recommend BG50's ?

So, everything was ok! I wasn't feeling much pain but needed to take a shower and the towel fell on my right hand... so, hello pain!

But I think it's alright, I'm feeling solid and it has been long since the last time...
Cheers!
