My arm came out of socket again a few hours after I got mugged less than a week ago.
I didn't get the surgery last time it came out before that , because I was scheduled for the Orthopedic, and a transportation issue came up at the last minute, followed by another issue that made the operation impossible (due to change in address).
So, it left my arm an accident waiting to happen. I actually waited 5 hours with a dangling arm I couldn't move in the ER this time.
I typed up a post about it and my phone died at the ER with no charger.
This is the fourth time it came out of socket and the worst. Just sitting down and any movement was excruciating.
The Doc said he might not even be able to set it because the bones created dents in each other rubbing up against each other , making it tough to set.
So he did this range of motion testing of it that was unbearably painful.
It was very humbling because I'm not the kind of guy that thinks pain can phase me to the point of a high pitch bitch noises because I have had broken bones and plenty surgeries for injuries.
This was actually worse than pissing blood clots larger than marbles after urethra surgery following a shattered pelvis.
Republican Senator John Mcain told people as a POW in Vietnam, the communists fractured his bones and would yank prisoner's arms out of socket. It left him permanently physically disabled whatever they did to him.
That was what I thought about in the ER. Someone somewhere in the world has worse injuries and no healthcare, no fentanyl and barbiturates either.
It is very humbling and scary to know the pain many are in.
Had I lived in many places in our world, I would have been bedridden the rest of my life with some of my injuries.
Without the urethra surgery I would be dead because I had a full bladder and inability to urinate.
After the fentanyl injection this last time, I felt like I was gonna float out of my body. Even the range of motion testing prior to that while sober was semi joyful at times despite pain, because ( in that much pain) beads of sweat form on the forehead, adrenaline gets going, and endorphins are released.
But the combo of that fentanyl and barbiturate injection with endorphins , was simply one of the best feelings, because it followed over five hours of agony.
In very intense suffering, sudden relief from it can make it so the pain increases the joy of the experience.
Have you ever experienced something like that?
