So what have you done today..?

Discussion in 'Lounge' started by figaro, Mar 17, 2012.

  1. Oxycontin. if that dont sort it nowt will
     
  2. Are you sure you're not Mick Doohan?
    It was the inability to raise arm above shoulder height that gave it away. ;)
     
  3. nasty stuff...
     
  4. i maybe should of read that before i took one last year for tooth ache, took half of one then another half about two hours latter. had a dram with it as well, sent me lala for 2days and i do remember struggling for air.
     
  5. I was lucky enough to be prescribed Nitroglycerin Patches for ligament overuse , worked wonders
     

  6. I'm not allowed to raise either of mine above shoulder height with any weight
    Im ok doing my hair though
    I feel your pain it's bloody agony on my worst days it's like having toothache and I can't find where it hurts to rub and usually resort to paracetamol and ibruphen
    I have been at the point of no sleep I found a v pillow helped I put my shoulders under it and slept on my back, though the nights I have cried in pain I still remember
    I have been told no repetitive movements either on the shoulder as that will make them worse ( no checkouts)

    I was under the shoulder specialist and also had the shoulder Physio which helped
    Ask for a second opinion and seek out the shoulder specialist
    Have you had an MRI ? That's where they found the scar tissue that had to be broken
     
  7. I'm guessing it's from your work that's given you the injuries I was married to a carpenter
    The sheaths covering the nerves get inflamed in the shoulder which hurts when you lift your shoulder above your head
     
  8. Its horrible isn't it.. being a chippy its impossible to avoid repetitive movements and unlike 1 doc suggested i cant afford to stop everything, retrain and work my way up from the bottom of another type of job.. but it was nice of him to offer...
    Not had an mri for some time but the bulge in the tendon was visible on the ultrasound.
    Apparently the next doc (who is to administer the injections) is another "specialist" im to ring his service this fri to make an appointment for shots but im going to ask for a consultation with him first...
     
  9. My wife was doing the crossword today and asked for help.

    "An office worker" she said "9 letters, beginning with 'S'."

    "What gender?" I asked.

    "What bloody difference does that make?"

    "If it's male it's solicitor, if it's female it's secretary."

  10. Yeah it's ok for the doctor to say give him a slap :)

    Think that's an idea and ask for an MRI
    Bulge on tendon sounds horrible
    I had a doctors sidekick doing mine and he had injections in his shoulder so was understanding to the uselessness of them as long term remedies

    Sadly the shoulders once damaged don't heal as good as the rest of the body due to the way they are supported :(
     
  11. Yea will do.. sometime ya arm just feels to heavy for ya shoulder dont it? have to stop my self from wishing i could remove it and put it beside my bed for the night, those that can do that would envy us.. (dont make it less painful though)
     
  12. Your so right there
    If I could wear my arms in slings it would be heaven
    my shoulders feel like they will drop out of the sockets !
    How do you manage to ride!
     
  13. Dont take passengers and keep the throttle open! no, ive only done 500 miles in the last two years on mine and the bikes i have used have been lil uns or cruisers... but that is part of the reason for finally goin through this bollox as ive given up a couple of times in the past and just resided to my fate.
    but the pain is now to much most days and the thought of not using my bike this summer has sealed it, ive got to get treatment whilst trying to save money to get into doin my own thing work wise
     

  14. Well let's hope that one will lead to the other and that you can do both :)

    I don't think I will have the strength to ride and think that's why my confidence is zero
    My shoulders hurt before my accident and my neck riding the SS think that plays on my mind too
    I got the monster just incase :)
     
  15. I've been learning country flags with Memrise.

    Why? I have no idea. I just worked out that although I know most of the major European ones (well, pretty much all the major ones) there are a load I have no idea about. Mind you, when you get into the Senegals and the Guinea-Bissaus, it does become complicated.
    Moldova looks like Romania but with a coat of arms thing, not to be confused with Andorra with another coat of arms thing.
    As for Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan, I can't even put them on a map.
    Is Myanmar Burma? I suspect it is.
     
  16. Yep :upyeah:.
     
  17. Just watch this ;)
