One more really big surgery
I am being prepped for a really big surgery. The car accident or last September broke my neck. It also caused the muscle transfer that I had to my scapula to pull apart.
The only solution is a scapulothorasic fusion. I need to have my shoulder brought up because it is depressed about 3 inches now.
The surgeon told me that this surgery will make my spine surgeries look like a walk in the park. It is that painful. I don't know if it is more painful then a broken neck.
