My r/shoulder last time it was examined by an ortho doctor was 5 years ago and it showed a partial tear of the Labrum again . I was also told by my doctor that it would be a good idea for a shoulder replacement

This was a ortho doctor outside of the VA system . After I get my knee's taken care of I'm going to get my shoulder looked at again

 

results are still changing but rt now clinton pulling ahead

 

Mike probably knows better but when they talked of replacing my knee they said with my activity level it would not last and I should wait . They just told me the same thing though with my shoulder . They can only put one or MAYBE two full replacements in before your done.

My mother had shoulder replacement. Twice.
She now has no shoulder.

 

when they operated on me they had to reattach the labrum but it also has 2 large holes worn through it apparently not much they can do with that

 

thanks

Then play it up and go on disability. You've worked long enough to qualify.

that would seriously suck

 

Good Night Peeps!

 

Good night

 

at all? does she still have her arm? how does that work? well that's just about scary as shit. i think it's kinda funny it's my shoulder that's tripping me up we all figured it would be my back. the next step for it will be a fusion of about 6 joints and i won't ever work again after that

 

night jim

 

The VA offers (2) styles of knee replacements a younger persons or sports style max age for this device is 60yrs old . the other is an older persons knee for less active people minimum age 55 and max age 75

There is a weight restriction of 265lbs anything over that age you're ineligible . you can have as many knee replacements as you can physically endure . depends on bone health

I've seen and heard of some Veterans having five or more knee replacement revision surgeries

 

Good Night Mike. Take Care Of that Hand! Hope Everyone Heals Quick!

 

it's only like 2/3 pay and i need to get this house and kids payed off first but may not be given a choice who knows at this point

 

She has no joint. Dr said she would rehab and be able to raise her arm about shoulder height. Nope. Stuck at her side and can't extend. I think that maybe her fault but still.....

G'nite

 

If you were in the VA system and had a disability rating , if you're 80 percent you could put in for 100 % disability because you can't work due to an injury

Its called individual unemployability clause

 

That just sounds like a ton of pain.
