My Story
Left diaphragm paralyized in 1989 due to MVA/MC (I was on MC). Trouble breathing post MVA. 2 years ago a shoulder block was given prior to shoulder surgery and I stopped breathing because the right diaphragm was paralyized from the block. Put on O2 flow after that. Lost all my energy and had difficulty walking very short distances. 1 Yr ago a thoracotomy was done and my left diaphragm was put back in place. Great pain for 6 months post surgery and still no energy but breathing improved in left lung. Several bouts of pneumonia in right lung left it scarred and 50% useful. Since the surgery I put on nearly 40 lbs. Less energy and the weight makes exercise very difficult. Still have pain at surgical incision site and all across abdomen. Just diagnosed with type 2 diabetes so a new diet is required which has to be balanced with another diet reuirement from taking Warfarin
My Goals For This Year:
Need to get down below 200 so I can start to get fit again.
Favorite Books & Music
Tom Clancy Books, L. Sanders,
Love classical, country and old R&R. I like the ability of rappers but not most of the lyrics.
