I applaud your resistance 2strokerfun! I also am ducking the knife on squishy spinal areas! Ryan went for the shoulder job, after his arm would, flop out of socket, seemingly, weekly, and doing the least of normal activities, going to the bathroom? My wife had the lower back disc job. Good for 5 years, then it comes back, no pun intended. Here again though, it was so bad,,,,. She even had this ghastly, through the neck area, cage and fusion crap, when you can not lift your arms, ding ding ding, its time to go? This one is doing better, yet she has NEVER raced, got in any wrecks, the crap happens rule? I had a front row seat! The heck with all that noise, get in shape, and daddies little helpers(lyrica), the hot tub, and getting back into shape! When they do the neck job, they go through the front, ICKY! I get the seemingly best fool with tools, on a simple collar bone job, "he is the best" with retired people that is, not me:
http://www.dirtrider.net/gallery/showimage.php?i=3191&c=3&userid=73147, thats the plate that broke, after he released me, good to go, back to work? A simple process of using 2, 14" pipe wrenches, and taking apart a half inch union, pop goes the crappy plate! No day in court for this guy, odd? No, not done yet, the doc figures a bigger plate, and a piece of my hip to be the ticket, OKAY FINE, lets get her done:
http://www.dirtrider.net/gallery/showimage.php?i=3232&c=. Now who would have thought, that screw to the outside sunk into my arm socket, he was bagging on me, for whining about the pain, and called me addicted to vicodin, he truly deserved a punch in the NOSE!, after the xray, "yeah I was thinking that went in too deep" What a piece of work this knife guy was/is? Simple enough procedure, but, the little extra shot, he gave me and sent me home, I thought I was dying! Hello vicodin over dose? Nope, I am still here, that bigger plate, really needs to come out. It got warm, shall we say, in a simple mri? The materials they use, in theory, should not do that. What little I know of metal properties, where did this"surgical grade material come from" Harbour freight, maybe? And their pledge, of not touching each others work, its still in, and no sleeping on my left shoulder, still! Fools with tools are everywhere, everyone takes issues differently, and I am just not the lets go sue kinda guy. Well, especially when I tried, the most ADVERTISED fool with tools in my area? Yeah, he has my folder, at the top of his desk, these things take time? For a simple workmans comp claim? 5 years of toil is going to be expensive? AYE CARUMBA! Our world is pretty messed up. If I did house rehabs, like these professionals, I would NEVER sleep, always be looking over my shoulder, and they are seemingly proud? How does this happen? Karma, all by design? Or a hint, of the downfall of our society, as we know it! Some of my best answers in LIFE, comes from this dirt bike site. And my proof, comes from the never ending stream, of my bike runs great, but, there is this spooge issue! Everything we perceive, is tied together, to the Grand Scheme of things, many are on the door step, of backing this up, with science and math. IMO, I hope to see the day, we can sit down, think about it, actually communicate within our selves, and fix what needs tending to, BUT, that may be down the road, and a very rocky one at that! My last lower back mri, its getting better, compared to the older ones! My neck, I found a good chiropractor, that pops off the calcium build up, from a compression fracture in the neck area, from 35 years ago? Yep, I remember when that happened! Dang trees are hard, and that knot I blasted out of that tree, is REALLY getting taller off the original impact height! Dang trees have a "mind" of their own, thats another story! Just Bob, with a tad of Vintage.
