re: Replacing alcohol with Marijuana.
Posted by PTBob on 3/29/25 at 10:18 am
replacing an addiction with a different addiction is a pretty good strategy
now, you'd rather it be a healthier addiction (exercising, golfing, reading etc.) but it's absolutely a good strategy

re: Know anyone who has traveled the Great Loop?

Lot of good YouTube channels of people doing it in various types of boats. I watch Zoffinger on 2nd monitor a lot and he tried but gave up. Made it from
Tampa to North Carolina I think. His boat had a ton of problems.

re: Border Collie's getting sh** done
Posted by PTBob on 3/9/25 at 4:40 pm
Had a border collie. We would play fetch with a big arse stick in a field close to a tree line. Like others have said, he'd go until he or I died. I'd have to make him stop.
I'd occasionally make a bad toss and the stick would go off in the woods pretty far. I'd be damned if he wouldn't go in the woods, search, and bring back the exact same stick in a place where there were a billion.
Miss him.

re: Experience with Labrum tear of the hip?

Do you have any personal feelings about stem cell therapy
I don’t, sorry. Other than the fact that many pro athletes use it to recover from surgery and injuries. I actually plan to ask Dr. Emblom about that at my follow up.

I will absolutely return back to 100% and so will she, barring any complications of surgery. I'm 37. Her age is a major benefit.
Follow the precautions, do the rehab completely including the return to sport stuff.
3 months I'll be back to playing league tennis and that is not an aggressive timeline.

The surgery is a scam.Do the MRI on any average joe and it will show a torn labrum. I used this program and it worked: Upright Health
Many people can manage it conservatively. Many can’t. The surgery is not a scam. It absolutely can fail if you don’t follow the post op restrictions.
He’s also making money off of you not doing the surgery.

Had my right hip labrum repaired and underwent femorplasty due to cam lesion a week ago yesterday.
Dr. Emblom at Andrews Sports Medicine in Birmingham. Crutches for 2 days, cane for a couple days, now assistive device free.
I’ll remove the sutures Wednesday. Haven’t needed pain meds since the second night.
I am a PT and am doing my own rehab and knew potentially what to expect but so far has been much easier that I was preparing for.
You will have some ROM restrictions initially to protect the newly repaired labrum.
I’ll be going back to work this coming Thursday.

re: Any baw fighting high BP with lifestyle changes?

Look up a Peter Attia podcast about blood pressure. He lays it all out and doesn't opine on things he doesn't know shite about a la Huberman. He does delve deep into the weeds sometimes but I find his podcasts extremely useful.
He recently did one with "Dr. Lipid" about cholesterol. One this week is on insulin resistance. Both of which play a role in metabolic disease and HTN.

Newer research shows that hyper responders benefitted from 28/g a day. I think 10% of population are hyper responders.
I’ll see if I can find the paper.

re: Who here uses a CPAP machine?
Posted by PTBob on 12/27/24 at 10:08 pm
got one in october. have tried and tried to get used to it just can't. it's not the pressure, it's just something about the mask. i've used 3 different variations of nasal pillow.
in the 3ish months i've had it, i've made it 4 hours twice. i have to wear it 4 hours per night, 70% of the time to be in "compliance" with insurance.
oh, i was 5'9, 195 when i got it. was exhausted some days and if i could squeeze in a 10 minute nap i would absolutely take advantage. my sleep study said i had 5.1 events per hour. 5 events per hour is the minimum number to qualify for a cpap under the "mild sleep apnea" diagnosis.
i've since lost 20lbs. 172 yesterday. still skinny fat, though. i'm not tired at all during the day now so i think losing some weight helped my issues.

re: Marshall head coach Charles Huff to Southern Miss
Posted by PTBob on 12/22/24 at 4:31 pm
he's a good coach and a great recruiter. brought a bunch of guys from their championship team including the QB.
he's got a reputation for being difficult to work with from an administration standpoint. marshall fans are big mad on twitter. obviously i have no clue if what they are saying is true or if its sour grapes but hopefully we don't run into that problem.
if he's successful at usm, i'd be surprised if he didn't get p5 offers.

re: Reverse Shoulder Replacement
Posted by PTBob on 10/21/24 at 2:03 pm
the point of a reverse shoulder replacement is to salvage as much use of your arm as possible. it is known that ROM outcomes with reverse shoulder replacements are less than total shoulder replacements. reverse shoulder replacements are done if you also have a rotator cuff tear or if you also have a humerus fracture in addition to arthritic changes.
a reverse total shoulder takes the socket portion of your shoulder blade and changes it to a ball and the ball portion of your humerus and changes it to a socket.
having that many dislocations is abnormal. you are either doing more than you claim you are, the surgeon sucked OR the surgeon did the best they could with what they had left to work with.
