Got MRI results

 Hey all hope everybody is having a GREAT week so far, here in the SW it has been so hot, under EXTREME HEAT ADVISORY until 9p, Wed night.   

Got the MRI results from my fall in JUNE FINALLY

Complete shoulder repair.   Not what I wanted to hear, although something had told me about 2 days before that was what was needed.    HOWEVER, due to my age the ortho doesn't want to do this surgery just yet so not have to go thru again in 15 yrs.   The 26th of this month going in for Orthoscopic, he is going to clean some of the old damage off  the bones, and try to repair one tendon, one is attached the other 2 are not fixable     The one may not be repairable.    The down time will be 1 to 2 weeks depending on if the 1 tendon can be fixed.   Prognosis is with this type of surgery 1 to 5 yrs   I feel like if I get even 3 months being pain free then it will be worth it.   

My fall finished it off,  this has been going on since a very bad car wreck in 2009 and at that time DR wouldn't order an MRI  .   

I will still try to do some blogs,  this is the reason I haven't done too many lately  5 minutes on my laptop and my arm feels like its about to fall off.


Please say some prayers for all involved
