No. But welcome to the group.

no but i would like to welcome you to the group

Nope, but welcome to DS!

Thanks for all the welcomes. I hope everyone is pain free and sleeping well tonight.

Wish I was pain free and sleeping well also, not happening. I've never heard of the surgery that you need, sorry. I would like to welcome you to the family, sorry you have to be here. You will not find a better group of people. They will give you support, advice, and suggestions to aid in your recovery or just kind words to get you through the day. If there is anything I can do to help you please do not hesitate to let me know, Kim.

I'm new here also. I have no idea if you are still interested, but yes, I've had a RSR on dominate right 4+ years ago. For me, it was a life changer because of the pain associated with it, and how I've attempted to remove the pain. My whole right arm was severely affected by the surgery and no one knows what is wrong. Surgeries have been tried on my hand and this resulted in a MRSA-like infection that threatened the appliance. The antibiotic used, Vanco, is the strongest available and it has a long list of side effects. I do hope you didn't need the major surgery, as mine was decided after they went in - maybe a simpler surgery worked. Let me know if you would like to hear more, it has changed my life and I'm doing OK.

Best of luck to you

Steve.....welcome to the group:)

Steve,
Welcome to the group. Vancomyacin is some evil stuff. It took me down in the Er one time and a patient fortunately saw me hit the floor and alerted the staff so they could get a crash cart.

welcome

Welcome to the group.. I hope you are as blessed by it as I have been .

Debbie,

I know that I am late in welcoming you to our group,but I am glad that I still had the opportunity. Somehome this thread slipped by me. This is a great community of people. We all share a common purpose and that of course is chronic pain. Each one of us may vary in what brought us here, but it is the pain that ultimately binds us.

These are good people, with a bank of knowledge and willingness to share. I am so glad that you have joined our group. Make yourself at home! Hugs, Cathy

sorry have not heard of this welcome hugs minnie

Steve and Debbie,

Welcome to our group. Lots of awesome people with a wide range of knowledge and support. I have not had the operation you are referring to..so no help there.

I have had MRSA (after each knee replacement) and agree the Vanco is powerful stuff. They watched my kidneys very close. But I am very thankful that it was available at the time.

please drop in often and keep us abreast of your progress. Wishing you painfree days.

Melinda

Welcome. No shoulders yet.
