The My Vibe Thread

[Southieinnc]

Went to an ortho yesterday for an MRI review.
My right hip is trash. Everything that could be wrong with it is way past bad. A year ago no pain in hip at all, one year later the joint is literally crumbling. I need hip replacement surgery. A year and a half ago I had avoided surgery for past 50 years. Fast forward and I’ll be getting my 4th surgery in 1 1/2 years.
I’m retired and have 100 percent coverage on my insurance but I’m getting tired of rehab. 3 years ago I asked my doctor if these hips would last another 10 years and he told me they would. WTF?

Welcome to the world of old farts.

From here on out, everything is rehab.

I spent at least forty five minutes straight swimming and body surfing at Cresent Beach. It was fabulous.

Today has been spent in my EZ Boy or my desk chair. I can't feel anything below my knees, but everything from my knees to my arm pits is throbbing. This doesn't compare to what you're going through. I'm not saying anything like that at all. We abused our bodies when we were younger because we could get away with it. Now the abuse is paying us back. All I can say is, Best of luck. Rehab with a new hip isn't bad. The lady across the street was 86 and she was up and walking the street two weeks after she got home from hip replacement. She said that it was the best she's felt in twenty years. You ain't that old and she juyst turned 89 and is still walking every day. Good luck, my friend.

I definitely earned the pain! Once again I’m trying to get my physicality back but knowing the other hip is bad too. I used to just refuse surgery but when you have a hard time just getting to the recliner…..

Good luck Southie. I don't envy you and the rehab.

I must be doing something right. I go out for a 20+ mile bike ride and about half way in a car slows down and a woman's voice is belting out "woooooo" like a cat call. Later I'm going through town center and another car slows down and a woman's voice yells out "you're beautiful".

Turning 60 at the end of the year.

Well of course you’re going to get “cat calls” when you wear an outfit like this!



Shit… I’d even whistle

One of the best places in New England for sports talk, sports news and getting the most straight info on any sport has closed permanently. The Gentlemen's Headquarters owner, Ken Forcier died this past Thursday from a massive stroke. I had my hair cut there from 1997 until I moved in 2022. I'll miss your texts and calls.

Thanks. I always appreciate your support. It may be a bit twisted, but it's long on support! You do lose points for not photoshopping an old man face onto that bod.

Great news geezers, FDA just approved over the counter ED med. It will be available in all CVS, Walgreen and Wal; Mart pharmacy areas. It's called Mycoxafloppin
