[QUOTE="pdfangus, post: 1183631, member: 6543"] the fingers and joints and bones that hurt me now........ are generally the ones that I did NOT go to the doctor for back in the day...... I have a wrist that took a mighty lick once when a hand crank came out of my grip and the safety paul failed and the crank hit my wrist with a couple thousand pounds of weight on the load..... I danced around and grimaced and held it for a while until it went numb and then went back to work....wrapped it up that night and never missed a minute of work.... want to guess how many doctors and procedures I have had in the last 20 years and where? and where the rheumatoid arthritis first showed up and what part of me hurts the worst when it does? some times the man up and move on attitude will bite you right in the a$$. have a knee that I hurt in a horse wreck when I was 17....never went to a doctor....want to guess where I have been limping for 40 years? how about how many times I have fallen in the last ten years because an ankle or knee just rolled and let me go...I have finally learned it is easier to try to control the fall and land well than it is to try to stay upright and tear up more stuff.... My best friend in high school was an offensive lineman....until he wrecked his knee and hip....back then we were all poor and his folks could not afford surgery any more than my folks could....he missed out on a football scholarship...he got to college anyway and became a vet in Michigan....have only seen him twice in forty years....wanna guess who had his hip replaced after limping around for twenty years or more...
