Out of bowling for te next 4-6 months

[Stormed1]

I had surgery on my left arm yesterday. I cannot lift anything for 2-3weeks. At that point I will be having surgery on my right foot (June 6th). I will be unable put any weight on my right foot for 8-10 weeks. The last time I had the same surgery I was out 6 months + . This will put me back to bowling in Dec-Jan

I pray it all goes well and a quick recovery. I had not bowled in 2 months started going through withdrawals so Saturday we found the time. That's when I learned they had changed THS to a 44 ft shot. I was leaving for a new house but with this new pattern I think I'll stick around.

Thanks for the well wishes. I signed up for Xtra Frame today so I can get my bowling fix

Oh yes... my tv is constantly running PBA events, and then try the PBA challenge on your phone or tablet and then add Wii bowling.

Well I got some good news from the doctor Friday. The last time I had this surgery I was totally off my foot for 6-8 weeks and then another 4 months before I could start back bowling. He told me I would be off my foot (no weight on it) for 2-4 weeks instead of the 6-8 I was expecting. My hope is that if I'm a good boy maybe I can be back to bowling by the middle to end of October vs January

Well for an update. It's been 2 weeks since the foot surgery. Te surgery went well, they ground down the offending bone and also repaired some scar tissue which was hindering the healing prior to the surgery. Saw the dr. last Monday and he was happy, not so much today. The tissue in the center of thee wound is not mending as he would like. He has ordered a wound-vazc to go on my foot. If it goes as the last time I will be in the unit for 2-3 months and then have some surgical skin grafts done to complete the healing process. It is was it is and as much as i wouldc like to i'm not going to rush back

I know how you feel, I had back surgery like 10 years ago and I have bolts in my back. It's been bothering me a lot since I came back to bowling 4 months ago. Not enough to make me stop though. I'm going to see if I can just get a shot for the little annoying pain from my back down my but and leg Here's my lower back http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v488/louvit/xray003.jpg

Just wanted to check for another update and thought I would let you know you're still in my thoughts and prayers. Health wise you've been through hell and back so I have faith you will be back bowling when the time is right. Good luck and hope the last ten days proved better than the previous.

[Stormed1]

Progressing well. They did a skin graft on Monday, so we'll see what the doc says next Monday

[Stormed1]

Well it's time for an update. Thins are progressing at a better pace than I expected based on my previous similar surgeries. My being a "good boy" and staying off my foot as much as possible has resulted in the wound closing up from 2.8 x 3.5cm to 2.1 x 2.7 cm in the last 4 weeks. It gives me hope that maybe I can return to bowling in October or November vs Jan/Feb. I also got fitted for ba new orthodic boot called an Owl which should also help the healing

[Amyers]

That's good news Stormed1. Keep up with the doctors orders and they will get you back. I know how hard it is I was off most of the summer with knee issues.
