Don't worry about all your info. It's always good to vent a little. It helps the battle we all face. Someone is always lending an ear.
Here's my story.
In 2007 I was involved in a really bad crash which completely snapped the left upper arm above the elbow. I also had a severe cut and blow to the head which caused me a lose of consciousness.
A CT scan found my cerebellum shrinking and the operation on my arm putting a rod from the shoulder to the elbow gave me this ugly monster.
The cerebellum controls balance, speech and other involuntary actions. So here I am in a wheelchair because I fall too much.
My speech is getting really slurred to the point that I'm hard to be understood.
My vision is blurred and I get seizures from time to time.
I had a bad fall once where the rod dislocated from my shoulder and is now sticking through my arm bone. The doctors tell me that surgery might worsen the CRPS. Another time I fell I broke my right wrist and now I have a plate in there holding it together. Also to fix the clawed left hand from CRPS I had it fused and there's a 4 inch plate there to make it look normal but it's useless.
Now all I do is take med cocktails and sit in this wheelchair.
Doing stuff around the house is difficult at times but needs to be done.
How's that for long!
Happy Dad's day if fitting!!!
