Surgery again

Dr. took me off physical therapy, said at this point it was stopping progress. I have 90% range of motion but no strength. Still painful.
Next, I have an infection in my intestine, diverticulitis that may mean another surgery if they can't clear it up. I had it over 10 years ago and it was bad, took out 10" of intestine that time. Healing took 3 months of bed rest. CT on Tuesday to see what will happen. Not a good year!

Not a good year at all.
Sorry to hear about your shoulder. I'd say mine is 95% but pain free. Have slightly less range of motion than my good arm but just glad it doesn't hurt.

Here's hoping to next year being better.

I went to my Gastro Dr. yesterday. He wants me to see a surgeon. Dr. thinks maybe scar tissue is built up causing pain. Today I'm seeing what Doctors my plan will pay for. This sucks! I need to get back to work. No work, no pay.

Any update? Im hoping you have some good news. Wishing you the best.

I went to the surgeon on Tuesday. He thinks scar tissue is the problem along with weight gain. I went to work today for the first time in 2 weeks. Not too bad, as time passes I'm feeling a little better. I'm not optimistic that this won't come back. At least no surgery in the near future.
