Prayers on the way.
Good to hear you already have full motion. Enjoy PT, and know that pain is weakness leaving the body.Just a quick update. My Doc is pleased with my recovery now off the sling since yesterday. This Friday is my first PT, all I have done on my own are pendulum and grip strengthening exercises, but I already have a full range of motion. It is a little tight/stiff but no pain.
Rick Richard I have offered a prayer to ease your pain and speed your recovery.That is great to hear. Today is my second day after back surgery for a herniated disc. Still have a lot of pain. I would appreciate a few prayers.
Praying for your speedy recovery my friend, I know the feeling, need a right knee done if I want to get on an Elk hunt. Can't get to the kitchen without limping .I had a carpal nerve release and cubital nerve release surgery on my left-hand yesterday. It went well and managing pain/recovery well.
Next week, I have my initial consult with a neuro-surgeon due to a pinched nerve on my neck. Depending on the outcome, I am also inline for a right shoulder rotary cuff surgery. Other than that, all is well.
Cheers!

Yep! She wanted to hike the Dolomites with her all-girls hiking/snowshoeing group in 2019 but there was a last-minute cancellation due to some logistic issues. It was changed to a river cruise hike in Croatia in 2020 but due to COVID, it was re-scheduled for Sep 2021.At the same time ?

Seems like we have quite a few injuries in this group at the moment...prayers sent to all that need them for speedy recoveries! I don't think that many of us prefer staying inside much!
Brother, I wish I had known you needed this, and I am going to put it out there for anyone with Carpal Tunnel problems. My RA Dr. Is a very bright man, and very good with needles. He developed a new procedure for this. He uses a local anesthetic. Then he scrapes the tunnel around the nerve with a needle, and sucks the scrapings in the syringe attached to it. He does this all guided by an ultra sound image on a screen. You can see the screen and watch the whole thing. Recovery is about 24hrs. The procedure just takes a few minutes, and it doesn't come back like conventional surgeries. Both my wife and I had it done when it was experimental. There are several Doctors doing this now across the country, so if anyone needs this surgery please look into this. It is fantastic, with much better outcomes than conventional surgery.I had a carpal nerve release and cubital nerve release surgery on my left-hand yesterday. It went well and managing pain/recovery well.
Next week, I have my initial consult with a neuro-surgeon due to a pinched nerve on my neck. Depending on the outcome, I am also inline for a right shoulder rotary cuff surgery. Other than that, all is well.

Get those trekking poles out to help you through movement!That is great to hear. Today is my second day after back surgery for a herniated disc. Still have a lot of pain. I would appreciate a few prayers.
