Calm down, people. I am not going to be crippled for life.
Here is a little update: a lot of the generalized pain is gone, and the right shoulder is much much better. However, there are some specific areas of pain, especially on my left shoulder. The pain in radiating down my left clavicle, and down the anterior of my left arm to within a couple of inches of the antecubital region. If this isn’t significantly improved within the next week or so, I will have to go for an MRI scan. Suffice it to say, though, that I am a lot more comfortable than I was a couple of days ago.
Here is the medical report from Dr. Singh, the orthopedic surgeon who initially treated me, and with whom I will follow up:
This is to certify that Kyle Varner reported to Adelin Medical Centre on 19th February, 2008 when he gave us the history of sustaining injury to his both shoulders while restraining his friend on account of his suicidal tendency.
On examination young healthy male with stable cardio pulmonary status no abnormal abdominal or neurological symptoms were met with.
In examination of his skeleto muscular system confined to his both shoulder he had classical clinical symptoms of post traumatic impingement syndrome for which he was given treatment on conservative lines and was advised to come for clinical follow-up at Ortho Medical Associates. If symptoms persist I will recommend him to have a MR scan done to review soft tissue status of rotator cuff.
I will Kyle good clinical and functional recovery.
So there you have it. I’m healthy and I will recover well.
