Bhank do you have a job? Guys say you don't job yet you talk about buying 1.5 million dollar house to be closer to your kid and have the money for a cosmetic 20K chest operation. Do you have a trust fund from your parents?
Reference the chest operation I remember my surgeon when I ruptured my bicep said the best outcomes happen when the injury is fresh and he told me 5 days out. He told be about guys that came in 6 weeks after and he had to graft cadaver tendons and the outcomes weren't as good. No clue if this applies to your situation.
Not sure why I am supposed to share my finances with getbig. There are not the best but that is a relative thing. Compared to a guy on welfare living in a rented basement I am doing pretty good. But yeah this is an exploratory visit I am not writing anyone a check for surgery today. I may have to shell out for some imaging as they do mri in house.
And yeah I get it doctors say do it immediately or it’s too late. I have seen many doctors since I tore it at 25 years old. This guy specifically says if you have been told that by another doctors to come see him and that his procedure can fix old chronic tears. Yes he uses cadaver and yeah I am sure the outcomes are not as good if he did it the day after that doesn’t mean they are not better than they were before surgery.
He may tell me he can’t help. I expect he tell me it’s a long recovery and there are risk and most people wouldn’t consider it worthwhile certainly the other doctors didnt. However I also feel like being a well trained teacher individual who knows how to do rehab gives me a better chance at a good start outcome.
But regardless this guy says he can fix muscle tears and old chronic tears why wouldn’t I go see him? Is it not worth a shot?
A lot of people would not be willing to give up usage of their right arm for 6 mo this to recover from a pec surgery when they are already capable of performing everyday activities. I am different it means more to me I am willing to lose the arm for 6 months and do a year of rehab and pay out of the pocket if necessary. Why because I don’t want another tear.
Also yeah I am worth it just because I am not a professional athlete doesn’t mean I am not worth fixing.
But don’t know details yet will get soon
