Got my arm operated on yesterday. Thanks to ambien I slept most of the day. Today I'll seek out an old friend without a day job to kill the time.
I ruined my arm digging for some bad underground cable about a year ago. Tennis elbow usually goes away on it's own but in a case like mine where it happens more instantaneously it may not go away without surgery. Thank god it's my right arm and not my clutch arm. Getting old sucks. I woke up with pain in my knee can you believe that crap? The good news is this injury gave me the opportunity to try planning work instead of doing it physically. in other words I'm an office boy now. At 37 with a neck fusion, jacked up arms, and knee issues in the mail I guess I can say my warranty is up and I'm leaving the field for good. I was always proud to tell someone I'm a power lineman, construction coordinator just doesn't have the same ring to it. But what ya gonna do? That's my rant. Anyone else had this surgery? I'm supposed to ice it but it's wrapped up so thick it's insulated
, went to a sports phyiso and he put my upper back back in ( C5 I think ) and I walked out with no more pain in my arms 
, it was that or the knife , same goes for your knee back out can cause leg problems too , hope your feeling better soon Al
