Don't slow down too much. Body and mind need to remain active as we age. You just got to be careful and not take dangerous shortcuts when it comes to lifting and other physical motions. I also understand that this is easier said than done...
You got that right, and the younger ones working with youDon't slow down too much. Body and mind need to remain active as we age. You just got to be careful and not take dangerous shortcuts when it comes to lifting and other physical motions. I also understand that this is easier said than done...
will now tend to think they have to carry you, but with out your wisdom they are still learning, and would be a bit lost.

Believe it or not I do this job solo! Maybe that's why I'm so damn worn out...I maintain 20 remote mountain sites and over 1500 subscriber units. Also 3 airports and the seaport...

Would your employer be up Poop River if you decided to NOT work for any reason?

I believe they would for a short while. No one even knows how to get to most of my remote sites. They are all up in the mountains and some are not at all easy to find!

@Sp8ctre Sorry to hear what you are going through.
I've had 4 shoulder surgerys 2 on each side. I've had the clavicles cleaned out each time as well as tears fixed. The loss of sleep is horrible, due to the pain.
Doc said it was from repetitive motion. I was a night stocker, stocking shelves in the grocery stores for roughly 19 years.
I found this guy on the net, Dr. Beau Hightower. If I was in a different spot in life, I would find him or someone with the same knowledge and background.

This guy does wonders for people, yet if you have things torn, that requires surgery you must have.
You also might find relief from this guy, Trevor Bachmeyer and his site SmashweRx. Alot of great exercises to get mobility back.
I have done a lot these with good results.

Its so very important to stretch, I believe thats what led me down this path. A lack of it.
Your in my heart and prayers brother! :dood:
I know whatever you choose, will be right for you.
Heres to a fast recovery and full mobility back in your shoulders!

The options I shared, I didn't know about at the time, and had the surgerys.
Its only in looking for other solutions I came across these in the past few years.
I can only speak about my shoulders, the cleaning out of the clavicle was just fixing a by product of another problem. Yet, my Doc just does surgery and is
a fine one at that.
I only share this because I know shoulder pain, and my Heart really goes out to anyone suffering such.
For me, rehab and getting mobility back was painful, but in 6 weeks I was back to slinging cans on the shelf again. Getting back to work, using my shoulder was the best therapy.
I'm not a Doctor, and one should follow theres.

Thanks for this! Anything I can learn or try to do to help myself out is great. I do stretching exercise everyday and it really helps my entire body.
The problem with me is I've always tried to do more than maybe I should. I never wanted anyone to think I was a slacker or couldn't pull my weight
and that has led me to over doing things.
At 5' 8" and 125 back in my USAF days I was always amazing people with my ability to keep up with the big guys and now I think I'm paying for it.

Do I understand this correctly USAF / United States Air Force...
Thank You for your Service! :dood:
This Thank You goes out to all Brothers and Sisters of this Forum that Served in any way, shape, or form! :dood:
Whats great about Trevor Bachmeyer is he is also a Cross fit trainer! His methods for the shoulder are sure and steady, and eventually can achieve mobility back.
Then I found recently Dr. Beau Hightower and he gets the shoulder mobility back within the "span" of an hour. His methods are maybe more painful, but the reward is
mobility and range of motion restored within that "span" of an hour. He grabs and sticks his fingers into the muscle to release it. I had fellow co-workers with similiar shoulder problems that went for just the rehab. They said they used a metal type spoon and drove that into the muscle, but didn't get the results that I see from Dr. Beau Hightower.
As for myself, my right shoulder is in a bad way. I have no insurance so have been on my own with it.
Here is Dr. Beau Hightower working on the Dog Whisperer's Shoulder.
Here is Trevor Bachmeyer and just one of many, of his routines for shoulders.
