Some of my readers may say that I always had a problem with Arm. The company, architecture, ecosystem etc.
But today I have some other problem. With arm.
Beginning
Some time ago my right arm started to hurt. In the beginning it was a bit annoying but then got serious. So I went to orthopaedist.
Orthopaedist
“Please stand up, please stand up” and then started moving my arms in misc ways. We were wrestling a bit, I did that “fasten your bra” move and diagnosis was clear: I had a problem with arm.
Got some sick leave and a list of imaging to do.
RTG, USG, MRI
Visited some other places, got some optical media with photos (and some in physical form).
RTG and USG were simple. Did them many times already.
MRI was the other thing. My daughter told me already that I need to be prepared for loud annoying noise. What I was not prepared was some shitty pop played over some shitty headphones. zOMG… I know that those headphones have to be as plastic as possible to survive inside of MRI machine but next time I will ask for not playing anything.
BTW: Can anyone recommend some good Linux application for watching DICOM images (other than AlizaMS)?
Second visit to orthopaedist
“Looks like you have SLAP (Superior Labrum Anterior Posterior).” Yay…
Most of cases are related to professional sport people. A group where I do not belong.
I think that I have to rethink my life desk setup.
But first have to sort out surgery stuff and how my summer time will look like. Rehabilitation, exercises, handling things with only one arm (not dominant one).
So if you would like me to do something for you before September then consider postponing as I may not be ready for it.
Vacations
I promised my daughter some trips during summer vacations. One set of attractions will slip for 3rd time. We have some conventions to attend and they should be safe.
Trip to visit my mother will be harder. No way to drive a car means that I will have to rely on public transport. In area where it sucks. Will be fun (for some sick definition of “fun”).
