Broken humerous and dislocated shoulder Posted: 01-06-08 16:06pm
hi i broke my
humerous in 4 places and my humerous got
pushed into my ball socket and then i
dislocated it very badly 4weeks ago.
after going to the local a and e
department and finding this out i could
not believe i had done so much damage from
falling off a stool. i had to wait for 6
days for my operation as i needed a
sholder specialist to peform the op as the
otherpedic specialists avaliable would not
touch it and i live in england about 1
mile from the local big hospital. Ive had
a rod put in and about 6 screws i think
which they say will stay there for good. I
can not believe what a life changing
experince this has been for me i was 40
five days before this happened due to go
to lapland with the kids the day after
which obviously got cancelled and they say
life begins at 40!!!!
the pain is dreadful and i am very
tearfull i have been told it will take 3
to 4 months to recover .the physio is hard
and i think i have done to much as i am in
nearly as much pain as 2 weeks ago, im
just wondering if there is any one else
out there in the same position? i would
love to hear from you

Broken humerous and dislocated shoulder 2 Posted: 01-19-08 17:23pm
im in the same situation, just younger and
no children, my career has just stoped i
hope not forever....i am 27 years old and
i was assaulted about 9 weeks ago. i had a
dislocated right shoulder and a broken
humerus. they say that it might not heal,
and i might need sergery for a
replacement..ii was kicked with a steel
toe boot directly on my shoulder as hard
as someone can kick you. im suffering so
badly, because i am a dj. Its been a dream
of mine and i finally got a job making
alot of money for 8 years now with a huge
promotional company. Now i think my life
is over. everything i loved for so long is
now over. i know for a fact my shoulder
will not heal and work the way it did
before and i am more depressed then i
haver evr been. Im not sure how things may
end up in the. Im just looking to see
someones story that has had some success
with thier(humerus fracture) and dislocted
shoulder. Im just wondering if ill be able
to dj again without pain, and with atleast
90 degree movement. this is the hardest
thing that i have ever been through...i
understand!!!
