I do know its going to be a long haul if it is torn. I'm hoping it's not. Keeping fingers crossed. I didnt feel anything happen, just had pain the morning after I worked on the car. The med he gave me finally kicked it and it feels better and I can move it slightly more. Tonight at bed time will be the test. Last night itt hurt so bad I had tears in my eyes. Just an unrelenting deep pain.
I've talked with my wife and she offered to help me with things, but even with me standing there showing her how to do it, there is no way she can do what I do, or match my experience and feel when it isn't right when doing something.
I had really thought all I had to deal wih were the effects of the stroke and dealing with that, I hadn't counted on something else happening.
