My shoulder looked a bit like this.

I saw Dr. Hartigan yesterday for a post-op visit. It’s hard to believe it’s only been a week since my surgery.  The first few days totally sucked with the pain, stitches, and narcotic side effects. I was feeling better, but still really fatigued.

It was weird seeing my clavicle with all of the hardware in it.  Dr. Hartigan rejoined the bone and put in a titanium with seven screws. Check out the before and after x-rays below.  Wow!

I’m always happy when surgeons are happy.  I get to start physical therapy next week and got the green light to ride the indoor trainer.  I don’t think I’ve lost a lot of fitness, I’m just worn out from recently having had an operation. I see him again in a couple of weeks and will post another report then.
