Wow Geronimo, you are very courageous and persistent! Good for you and thanks for sharing your experience!

I've had both knees and a hip replaced, shoulder is next in August. Diligence is required both pre and post op. It's very unfortunate to have to go through not one but two surgical mistakes. Your perseverance and spirit carries you. You're a great example for all!

Thank you so much! It has really been an ordeal and I have had so many professionals invalidate my experience along the way - both medical and OT folks. It feels wonderful to now have a bright and competent doctor who is overseeing my care, to have undergone surgery with him that reduced my pain 95%, and to have OTs who trust and support me. This is the kind of care everyone deserves:) I still have a few issues that are in the process of getting resolved and trust that my current surgeon will ensure a good outcome.

I hope that you are doing well since your knee and hip replacements and that you have a wonderful outcome with your shoulder surgery.
