Hello,

I was informed this morning that I will be needing to have another shoulder surgery in a week. I was medically retired from Active Duty officially on Jan 29 of this year.

I was blown up in Afghanistan and was followed on by an Ambush of militants of roughly twice our man power. luckily for my and not so much for some of my close brothers. I was able to make it out with some minor Shrapnel damage to my shoulder. I was medi vaced to the closest FOB with a medical facility. There they were able to remove all shrapnel and stitch me up and back to work I went. Well after returning home and realizing that my shoulder was giving me some issues well the doctor sent me to Orho for a Diagnostic. well two x-rays later and I am given a clean bill of health. well after repeatedly dislocating my shoulder on every push up exercise. So I pushed harder on the Navy medical system. Finally I get an MRI. and looks like while the early stitch up was a immediate fix it did nothing for the ripped posterior labrum. so I went in for surgery for that back in Nov 2011... fast forward to 2012 in Lemoore CA shoulder still in excruciating pain and completely unable to do any shoulder or arm activities. MRI! dr says everything looks normal other than the fact that the doctor in my previous surgery used Kevlar stitching instead of the necessary dissolvable stitches... fast forward to this morning. (Keep in mind I am now medically retired from the military and am still recieveiving my medical insurance because my injuries were enough to entitle me to them.)

DR: Well I with there were some good news like I can fix your problem without surgery.
Me: Seriously? one hell of a stage to set doc
DR: Well your labrum is torn in half because it rejected the kevlar stitching but in the process it also scrapped the labrum from every wall in the socket so essentially your labrum in floating in your shoulder not giving you any support.
Me: That would explain my inability to do anything with my arm... well considering how serious you make this sound how quickly do you think that I will need to be in surgery?
DR: By the end of next week.





Inside my stomach gets nauseous. I am living supporting my wife, 11Mon old child, Mother, little bother, little sister. all because their dad up and left.

I know this surgery is necessary but I am so anti Pain Killers of pharmaceutical nightmares. I currently have a grow going but will not be finished in time to be able to help with this healing process.

I am looking for people that can help me along untill then. I unfortunetly cannot afford club prices... But I am completely legal.

If you or anyone you know that can help please message me on here and I will exchange phone numbers with you... I am looking for popcorn units or outdoor units

anything that is cheap that might not be bad for pain... fingers crossed. this is my second go around and I am not excited. low budget to work with so I am sorry to put anyone out.

Check with your local dispensaries to see if they have any "compassionate" programs for patients who can't afford to pay full ... uh, I mean 'donate' the full amount. I know at least one that uses its ATM fees to fund a program like that, or at least it claims to. Most likely no one on this site would want to contact you directly to arrange any kind of transfer of medicine. Too much paranoia about the DEA and their bullshit stings.
