Good luck!!! Sorry for asking, but these next injections are to close to the last ones, why? It's everything alright?

Thanks Julio,

The injections are done in "Series". Usually sets two weeks apart. There is an option to wait a while between set 2 and 3. It's my laymsn's understanding that this allows the Steriod to shrink swelling .... Then come back and shrink swelling again. Lasts better. For me 4-6 months

Not a great set of options. But - without them I'd have stopped walking in any version of a normal manner 8 years ago.

Thanks .., they took good care. I survived.

Yay.

Aw man! These are going to be awesome and last a long time!

Sorry I didn't get the chance to spec and shoot the ball ammo this weekend. Sean's post reminded me I might need to try the .32 in the Woodsman in shotgun mode though.

Thanks Don,

It went well. Always helps me.

The effects can last for about a max of six months before the pain burns thru meds too bad.

I appreciate your well wish. Home, and put in a productive afternoon and evening.

I got home and went to the shop. No - not supposed to.

I've worked quite a lot, on stock work. Have rounded, sculpted, and sanded for quite a few hours. Pretty full of sawdust I think. haha.

Coming along well.

I'll drop in a pic from the phone.

Best,

Looking good. thumbs up

That's a highly sophisticated lighting setup there. Tinfoil AND a string...whoa.. smiling smiley

I will have you know that that is not Tin foil. It is Aluminum tape. Quite a step up. It creates a non glare hood for the CFL bulbs. The "string" is a "Woven Fiber Suspension Device" or WFSD here at BPS. We'd be pleased to upgrade our working conditions by raising prices, so as not to embarrass our readership. I shall bring it up at our next Board Meeting. take a bow

Gary,

Still amazed at the WFSD. Trying to enlarge the photo to send to Asia to be copied. You might be on to something here. hmmmmm

Glad to hear your injections are a success. I have had two corteson injections in my right shoulder in the last 1.5 years. Works great but it wore off just in time for the spring yard work sad smiley

I told my new chiropractor about the injection and pain I am experiencing. She echoed what someone at work said, only 3 corteson shots in your lifetime. The last doctor I saw said that 3 shots are year where fine. Who is right, who is wrong. Need to do more research and start finding alternatives.

Looks like your keeping busy. Your "stock" is rising in value smiling smiley

Aluminum tape is good stuff. I use it for all kinds of HVAC uses, but I don't think I've branched out into lighting yet. Only drawback is if/when you have to peel the stuff off again, it's tenacious as all get-out.
