Kind of hard to tell at this point but I definitely don’t feel the crunching and grinding going on that I did before.
I haven’t taken the Hydrocodon they gave me yet because whatever I got during the surgery is still keeping the pain at bay. I can tell this because the bone on bone and crunching...
Oh I’ve been having that. Got my first shots in ’07 and been on anti inflammatories and pain meds since. It’s been bone on bone for a while but chunks of cartilage are cutting things up in there. Good ol VA care…
Same. I replaced the hardware though as what was supplied seemed to keep wanting to work loose.
I drilled out and used larger bolts. Has some resistance to raise but stays up and out of the way when needed.👍
