News of the day-
you know the shoulder, the one I keep hurting? Welll.........it seems that the answer isn't more wine. It's surgery. Cool, eh?
Really, really bums me out.
Only spin I can put on it is that at least there is a solution and the Dr didn't just gently tell me to fucking deal with it. She actually used the word "gimpy" in describing what can happen if I re-injure it and cause nerve damage. Gotta love a Dr who uses the word gimpy.
Fuck. Fuckity fuck fuck.
I see the surgeon next Monday. More to follow.
oh man, so sorry.
ReplyDeletegoing under the knife is always the last option.
you sure you won't re-consider "more wine?"
anyway...much luck.
YE GIMP!

ReplyDeleteThanks LX- it isn't like there are a lot of options from what the good doctor said. We have some friends whose daughter has the kind of nerve damage that she mentioned as a possibility if the injury occurs again- it's really bad. So there you have it. At least it'll be covered by the medical plan.
...if you're lucky, they'll give you a bit of Neurontin so your mind can become blissfully mush.
ReplyDeleteSorry I missed your call, I'll call back tonight. At least surgery gives you an excuse to get lots of post-op massage on the area to break up the inevitable formations of scar tissue!!! Yay!!!!
