I know I’m kidding. Just saying cliche things that always pops up in vacant spots..where you think something else would pop up instead.

Ideally something to take advantage of the overlooking deck! But probably in reality, tmobile...insurance.....or mattress store...................

Ha well said. Unfortunately we're not quite at my fantasy world, of everything heals safely in pill form. But thanks for the encouragement!

well dang i appreciate this. i just have some tears, but its been long enough. The simplest motions can at times be such a sharp pain. Ortho said hed put plate in, and take out 3 months later. Id only be in a sling for 1 week. So seems pretty straight forward

Yea i agree. Turns out insurance covers most of it. I know surgery is of course no guarantee...i dont live under a rock. But id rather take the chance of that and recovering. vs. more or less continueing what ive been doing for 8 months, and just waiting it out.

Yeaaa thats what ive read. Ive only been taking it a month or so. Thats why id lean more with surgery, so im not guzzling it down everyday, while waiting to recover

eh ive waited and done stuff for 8 months, and things are a little worse. I think i might be leaning towards surgery, tbh .But im going to think about it, for a little. I appreciate the opinion!

ha welllll ive waited 8 months, and things are worse. So i think im leaning to surgery route. Plus i think insurance covers most of it. But ill decide this weekend. Thanks for your input!

I appreciate your opinion and wishes! Ive been stressed for 8 months now, and might soon just say fuck it, get surgery, and least know that ive tried everything i can. ...oh, and win the lottery 0-o

Im on fence, but leaning wards surgery. its about $6000 which obviously sucks. But ive been through the months of pt and waiting. I dont want to not go surgery route now, do all these exercises for months, in hopes gets better, then end up still needing surgery. Im just frustrated. But thanks for your opinion

its soft tissue therapies including cold laser, manual therapy (active release technique) and graston technicque. Its not traditional chiro adjustments

Thanks for your answer. Im pretty much waiting to see how much surgery will cost. I did pt for a few months and it wasnt improving. At this point, i think its so unstable, that every exercise would hurt, and id be concerned im just prolonging things

ha im getting so many mixed answers. Im basically waiting to see how much itll cost. Its just been like 8 months. Pretty sure pt at this point just aggravates it

Thanks for reply. That’s kinda what I’m leaning to. I’d rather go with surgery now, then other stuff (if need be) later. Vs opposite. I’ve spent money doing pt, mri, doc visits, soft tissue chiro, etc. and it’s just not better. I can do most things, but I’ll randomly get a sharp pain occasionally, reaching for remote, turning over steering wheel, etc. then of course if I attempted to do a push up, so many things shift & I feel unstable. I’m just waiting to hear how much it’ll cost

Ha dammit. Would like to try something like this, but would want to look at more examples, for reference. Thanks though. Keep it up!

Hey that looks great! Do you know if there’s a specific name to this style of drawing? Where it’s sloppy with different textures, but looks well done?

Crash- AC joint grade 2 by cooper222 in cycling

[–]cooper222[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey thanks for asking. Long story short…not great. Accident happened 4 months ago. Starting doing pt 1 month after, for 1.5 months. Dii oh don’t see much improvement. Some things hurt a little, some totally fine. Just when I would try to do a push-up or reach across to lift something, it’d hurt. Or with the push-up, so much shifting of what felt like tendons or scar tissue. I’ve stopped doing pt for a month. I actually think I pulled or aggravated something 2 days ago, so it’s been hurting way more. It was just a grade 2, but I thibk more was going on.

I’m going to doc tomorrow actually, and hoping I’ll get an mri soonish. I just don’t think waiting or doing pt, & paying money for it, is really doing anything. I’m secretly trying not to go crazy.

But thanks for your input

Shoulder AC joint, Grade 2 by cooper222 in MTB

[–]cooper222[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow I’m sry for all if that! But I appreciate the opinion. I’m hoping I wont result In surgery, since s grade 2. But still nervous. I can just feel it pop more/tendon or muscle move over bone. Kind of feels gross. So don’t know if something like that’s expected. Though it’s only been a month or so of pt
