Title: My new shoulder!
Post by: Sigesmundninja on March 28, 2012, 10:12:10 PM

A little different buildreport this time. I dislocated my shoulder 3 years ago while training Brazilian jiu jitsu and tore up my Articular capsule. Yesterday I had my second surgery and hopefully it will be as good as new this time! Won't be able to solder or drill for some time now. But since I will be home from work for 3 months now I gonna start planning my future builds! Here's a short video from the inside of my shoulder  ;D

Wow!  Speedy recovery man,  I had knee surgery years ago and it took a while to bounce back, but I was much better for it in the end

Good luck to you. Funny I tore my shoulder up training BJJ as well a few years ago. I had a biceps tendon tear and had re-attachment surgery.

Also I am an occupational therapist and rehab a lot of post-op shoulders. Hang in there.

Rest well, and I'm sure you will be back to ripping throats in no time.

Kimura, omo plata? This is one build I am not envious of. Speedy recovery brother. Luckily I don't have to have surgery yet.

I jumped up to get a flying triangle and my opponent fell forward... me being stupid broke our fall with my right arm behind me and it just snapped! Big stupid mistake.

Ooooh... that's nasty! Did he recover fully?

Yeah a couple of plates and lots of time later he is good. Happened year before last and he got his purple this year, so he is doing well.

for a purple belt, it's worth it as long as you recover fully  ;D

Dang sounds nasty.

My shoulder tore up from being subject to multiple armbars, omo-platas, and kimuras over a few years. Don't really roll anymore but made 2-stripe blue belt. I do miss it alot even after multiple injuries  ;D

Do you plan on continuing after recovery?

It depends on how well i recover. Havn't been sparring in 3 years but I really, really miss it. I do roll with my brother sometimes but i don't think I will start competing or training in at least 3 years more. I will stick to crossfit since it does wonders for my diabetes :)

Dude you must be my long lost brother or something. I have been a T1 diabetic for 35 years (since 4). As you know, exercise is key to stable blood sugars.

Unfortunatly, I have developed some vision issues in my right eye (advanced retinopathy) from the disease but have been pretty lucky so far otherwise...

Luckily my left eye is ok so I can still build pedals with mono-vision  ;)

Weird! I think all the BJJer's on this forum have diabetes. I am type 2

Post by: Sigesmundninja on March 31, 2012, 04:02:33 PM
Type 1 since 4 years now at age 29. Guitars, Effects, BJJ and Diabetes... the four cornerstones!! ;D
