    That's rather terrifying! Glad to hear you're okay, and without even any broken bones; you're a lucky guy. Lessons learned indeed. Was the torn tendon one of the deep rotator cuff tendons; the supraspinatus by chance? That one is commonly torn in trauma situations...

    Not sure, I see ortho tomorrow, they said it was too swollen to tell a whole lot
    then. They wanted to let ortho deal with it. I have tingly/numb pinky/ring finger. When I move arm at the shoulder level, it feels...empty. Not sure how else to describe it. It feels like there is a dead spot, like it should be moving but it isn't.
    My lats are sore as hell too. I am gonna be hurting tonight, come 2am....let the tears fall.

    I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.

    Remember that life is not measured in the breaths you take, but rather in the moments that take your breath away.

    Sounds like some neuro deficits. Could take a while to heal but GET WELL soon!
    Well tell your wife to punch you in the dead spot if she's mad...at least you won't feel it.
