Two Weeks post op..

Had my doctors appt with Dr Consiglieri yesterday the 19th of February. Also our 10th wedding anniversary.
Short visit with the doctor.  Good News the surgery was successful.. no pain or discomfort from incision area and the neck feels great.
However, the bad news is that I have
C-5 Palsy in my left arm. I have use of wrist and fingers.. however limited motions with fingers and wrist,, can type..
As for motor type movements lifting the arm, reaching nothing..There is considerable pain along with this.. NOT much in known about this type of palsy… If you find anything about it would like it if you could forward it to me.
C-5 Palsy >> http://www.bjj.boneandjoint.org.uk/content/96-B/7/950 <<this is about as much info that is out there..
I will start PT next week..
I am still pretty upset knowing that my arm is paralyzed! And pain.. Imagine how difficult my world is right now.. Oh yes and I am feeling sorry for myself right now.. Everything is still so fresh..
Give me sometime and I am sure things will improve (positive you see )..  I will try and keep up dates and progress..
Our road trip that we were going to do is now on “hold”, but if things improve?? Keep you fingers crossed and lots of prayers.. I will do the work..
