Amazing and Inspirational

A friend introduced me to a guy who had a motorcycle accident 4 years ago. He had 8 surgeries done (at Mayo), metal rods in his arm, metal in his shoulder blade, etc etc. After listening to his story I couldn't believe he's able to move his arm. In fact he bought a GXR1000 not too long ago. He was i...

Re: Had Surgery Yesterday.. Finally

Mine was on the 24th and my hand burns more than usual. They cut me near my collar bone and my inner biceps. No much pain in those areas, the pain and burn...

Re: Still no surgery

Happy belated birthday Armstrong and thank you for all you advices. It truly means a lot. I exactly understand what you're going through, it's scary. I certainly would like to carry my son above my head again. Like you said, we have to be strong and hope for the best. They finally scheduled me for a...

Re: Still no surgery

Thank you everyone. I have Tricare Prime and they already refered to Duke University in NC. By then I just had an EMG done, so Duke wanted MRI as well. Waited about 3 weeks for that, sent it to Duke, but no response yet. I'm definitely going to my provider and get some answers because in tired of wa...
