Well. .
After a consult today and a second opinion by the other surgeon in the practice where I am going my Dr has posponed my surgery for tommorrow. After they both looked over my MRI of my right arm they have concurred they do not need to open it up right away. The tendon has tore away at the top of my arm at the shoulder and my right bicep muscle has been torn almost all the way in half. The surgeon related to me the tear is kinda like butterflying a filet mingon,tore from the top to bottom and almost to the bone. This is where the excessive bleeding is coming from and with it being a muscle tear they can not operate on it to repair it,time is the only thing that can fix it. As for the tendon and ligament damage up top they have given me medicine to try and reduce the swelling and bleeding so they can get a better look with a second MRI on the 18th of the month. So for now,no cutting and I am relieved but I am not out of the woods yet. I am still on restricted duty,no driving,no lifting,no working until they have a second looky see and determine what they need to do next. I am hoping this is a good sign and am keeping my chin up... ... ... . Andy
