1 Week Post Op

Here's best wishes for a speedy recovery !!

Yikes. The bicep tendon rupture, I have done . . . but mine was distal. Becoming left handed overnight for a few months was an experience I don't recommend to others.

Hope you recover quickly and fully!

That looks like it hurts more than my total knee replacement 1week post OP. Yikes.

Maybe your house became haunted at the same time or you picked up a ghost from the hospital.

That looks like a really cool outer space nebula tattoo.

Yeah, internal bleeding that leads to bruising...and it travels. Broke my ankles and my toes turned black. Doc said that the blood tends to follow gravity.

Had a bad SLAP tear and 30% bicep tendon tear. Good times. I found the best solution was ice. I bought a cryotherapy unit from Amazon and it was a lifesaver. Keeps the pain levels and swelling down.

Hang in there. It gets better pretty quickly. Don't overdo it and have fun in PT. [Weight]

And all this time i heard you'd go blind. Looks like another myth, BUSTED!

Ouch! Damn.

Well...I did get Lasik several years ago.

Looks like you got kicked by a mule. Hope you kicked back. Take it easy and heal.
