Still hurting a lot but feelin a lot better. I was very scared they would have complications, id lose a lot of blood, and was especially scared that they would move me to an operating table before putting me under anaesthesia because my right leg and hip was pretty much unmoveable and hurt like a goddamn sonofabitch when They had previously moved me to my bed when I arrived. I was yelling and cussing, almost crying. Didn't cry tho cuz crying is gay. Lol.
It was crazy. I was in the prep room, talked to the DR and anaesthesiologist and nurses. I blinked, then opened my eyes and I was in a different room. Asked the nurse "am I still in the prep room?" and he goes "no this is the recovery room."
*surprised pikachu face
Its nice to not be so afraid of moving, and to look down and see my foot in its normal place instead of a foot to the left of where it should be.
I sure do love morphine.
Gonna be a long recovery.

Edit. Cleared for outpatient PT already. I've been hurt worse before. Doctors and nurses seem surprised.

Good to hear you came through it, bro.

Collagen supplement, bone broth, and creatine to speed healing.

[ - ] Clubberlang 2 points 1 monthMar 15, 2024 20:28:56 ago (+2/-0)

Doesn't creatine fuck your kidneys?

[ - ] AtomicForeskin 3 points 1 monthMar 15, 2024 22:33:04 ago (+3/-0)

Creatine is the most studied supplement in the history of supplements. It is completely safe but if you are prone to baldness you will experience hair loss.

[ - ] Huscarl 0 points 1 monthMar 16, 2024 14:04:36 ago (+0/-0)

So creatine shits which 90% of users experience is completely safe? I do support creatine if you are building mass but it will fuck you up a bit and you should use it moderation. What is completely safe is milk whey protein powder unless you cant handle lactose.

[ - ] dass 1 point 1 monthMar 16, 2024 21:01:01 ago (+1/-0)

Because you are starting off with too high of a dose for your body , too much vitamin C foor an uninitiated can cause diarrhea as can too much chocolate.
One needs to 'load' up their creatine levels as well for the body to acclimatize (and also prevent diarrhea) - Low dose daily for 2/3 months or a much higher dose (3-5 grams daily) for 3-5 weeks.

[ - ] BushChuck 2 points 1 monthMar 15, 2024 20:33:04 ago (+3/-1)

No. but it will increase your creatinine markers, and it will look like advanced kidney disease on standard "blood work".

Creatine is naturally occurring in red meat. About 1 gramme per pound, or so. The average man has reserve capability of about 5 grammes of creatine. You could get it naturally, if you wanted to consume a couple kilos of red meat per day, and many body builders do just that.

[ - ] dass 3 points 1 monthMar 15, 2024 21:10:32 ago (+3/-0)

Yeah, i load with 5 grams of creatine per day for working out (along a range of other targeted amino acids and supplements).

[ - ] BushChuck 3 points 1 monthMar 15, 2024 21:18:28 ago (+3/-0)

Yep, 5 grammes in my green tea every morning.

I also take a bone broth that my crazy neighbour makes. Dude actually had it lab tested until he got his formula perfect.

For extra collagen I make a chia seed, coconut milk gelatin thing.

[ - ] Ragnar 2 points 1 monthMar 16, 2024 00:14:58 ago (+2/-0)

You are a retard. But can I have the gelatin thing recipe?

[ - ] BushChuck 0 points 1 monthMar 16, 2024 03:43:08 ago (+0/-0)

just dissolve gelatin in your everyday drinks.

It will make you- live longer.

Not sure why I'd tell you that, eh?

[ - ] Gowithit 1 point 1 monthMar 16, 2024 05:13:15 ago (+1/-0)*

Ask him for his apple cake recipe.

[ - ] Ragnar 0 points 1 monthMar 16, 2024 15:08:22 ago (+0/-0)

Nice try, beanie

lol. One day.

[ - ] Ragnar 1 point 1 monthMar 16, 2024 15:07:32 ago (+1/-0)

Thanks for nothing, retard.
I mix gelatin in soups and stews already.

Just bought “collagen” yesterday with a formula based on clinical trials. I bet it’s all smokes and mirrors

[ - ] Centaurus 2 points 1 monthMar 16, 2024 00:43:43 ago (+2/-0)

Everybody could benefit from creatine supplementation, especially older folks.

[ - ] Cantaloupe 0 points 1 monthMar 16, 2024 10:54:57 ago (+0/-0)

Good to do

Word.

I just got out of surgery...

And boy are my arms tired!

Daily reminder that this guy is a literal middle school dropout who knows nothing.

Oh now it all makes sense

No, I bet you gfr is in the gutter where your cantonese wife collects her oil

lol, "ragnar"

[ - ] ItsOk2bArian 0 points 1 monthMar 15, 2024 22:18:09 ago (+0/-0)

You're thinking of bodybuilders that O.D. on supplements and damage the kidneys. Niacin overload is a good example.
Use as directed and everything will be fine

[ - ] Ragnar -1 points 1 monthMar 16, 2024 00:13:51 ago (+0/-1)

Yes

...you went under anesthesia???...you fucking whimp, a real man would have bitten down on a stick...heal up quick, summer's comming.

You know the ADL is taking notes on your crytic speak.

[ - ] RobertJHarsh 0 points 1 monthMar 15, 2024 22:15:47 ago (+0/-0)

An unpaid ADL intern is. The ones who suck jew dick every day so they can intern for no money.

He went under it like a limbo stick and said, "Not today, doc, I can handle it."

[ - ] gimpyoldman 6 points 1 monthMar 15, 2024 18:54:29 ago (+6/-0)

I'm not giving up my account name for you! I made it while recovering from a fracture hip that now has 3 X 3inch screws holding it in place. It took me almost 6 months to walk without a limp. Do the phys therapy. Hope you don't have any complications and speedy recovery.

[ - ] big_fat_dangus 5 points 1 monthMar 15, 2024 17:15:59 ago (+5/-0)

Be extremely wary of opioids during recovery. Discontinue use as soon as you can stand it. Insist on a non habit forming pain killer, and then watch your labels carefully because more often than not they'll prescribe you an opioid regardless.

[ - ] Sector2 3 points 1 monthMar 15, 2024 21:29:35 ago (+3/-0)

Oxycontin is a wonderful drug. At least until the pain is down to a dull roar. Given they make you totally worthless, it's weird that people want to take them all the time.

[ - ] Not_a_redfugee [op] 2 points 1 monthMar 15, 2024 18:17:40 ago (+2/-0)

Ive been on them heavily before, the last time I was in the hospital and then recovering. Once I ran out, that was it. I didnt seek any more. No problem.

[ - ] BushChuck 0 points 1 monthMar 16, 2024 03:46:23 ago (+0/-0)

pain killers are for pussies

[ - ] big_fat_dangus -1 points 1 monthMar 16, 2024 05:13:13 ago (+0/-1)

Being an 8th grade dropout is for pussies, like you.

clever, jew.

"Can't wait to recover and start riding my dirt bikes again!" - this dumbass probably

[ - ] Not_a_redfugee [op] 3 points 1 monthMar 15, 2024 18:18:56 ago (+3/-0)

No, asshole.

[ - ] rzr97 1 point 1 monthMar 15, 2024 19:40:22 ago (+1/-0)

Seriously though think about all the bad advice you've probably given over the years, likely calling people names, etc. for saying negative things about riding dirt bikes or for that matter, motorcycles on the street which is even dumber imo. People want to drive a fucking motorcycle around steel cages moving at 80mph with blue haired trannies texting their friends about bleaching their assholes while driving. Don't do it. We've all driven motorcycles on the highway--when we were young and stupid and hadn't seen death or reallized how close it is. Rant over.

Edit: This wasn't directed at op by the way just my view on getting older and learning limitations and dangers. Preemptively go fuck yourself if you don't like it reader.

[ - ] Sector2 1 point 1 monthMar 15, 2024 21:24:41 ago (+1/-0)

There are some gnarly motorcycle compilations proving they're totally invisible to most drivers. (and/or way too reckless.)

[ - ] dass 1 point 1 monthMar 15, 2024 21:12:59 ago (+1/-0)

'Wait, how does having no asshole stop you dirt biking ? (just use a donut cushion)' /jk

Anyways Heal well, and all the best for your recovery.

[ - ] Clubberlang 1 point 1 monthMar 15, 2024 20:29:34 ago (+1/-0)

Aym eeebol kannawteevul!

[ - ] JustALover 0 points 1 monthMar 16, 2024 11:41:17 ago (+0/-0)

I'm 100% that this retard will do just that, but this time he'll be "careful": he will be wearing a denim jacket over his t-shirt.

Got hit by a car about a decade and a half ago. Fuckin demolished my let side, got broadsided while on a bicycle. Got me started on painkillers, and I had a really toxic love affair with them long after I healed. It got to the point that I was injecting 30mg Roxie's a couple times a day, couldn't function without it.

I went through a fucked up situation that I'll spare you the details of, and I took well enough that it should have killed me, as that was my intent. I woke up the next day still alive, and happy that I was. Was tough getting off that shit though. Been clean of opiates for over a decade, mostly because of the love of a good woman.

Use it while you need it, but opiates are not your friend. Don't go through what I did. I wasted a lot of good years.

Good. If you're smart enough to not learn the hard way I give you props. I don't want any White people to walk the path I chose.

[ - ] BulletStopper 1 point 1 monthMar 15, 2024 20:08:43 ago (+1/-0)

And you learned some things. So there's that.

[ - ] Nietzsche 2 points 1 monthMar 15, 2024 23:58:23 ago (+2/-0)

We know it was gender reassignment surgery. Nice try covering for walking funny for a bit.

"Under" anesthesia is a reference to OP's wiener.

You know they vaxxed you while you were under, right?

[ - ] ItsOk2bArian 0 points 1 monthMar 17, 2024 03:14:52 ago (+0/-0)

Don't punk out on the physical therapy. Tearing through scar tissue sucks, but it has to be done

[ - ] observation1 1 point 1 monthMar 15, 2024 22:43:38 ago (+1/-0)

Take lots of vitmain D

[ - ] Steelerfish 0 points 1 monthMar 16, 2024 23:40:47 ago (+0/-0)

Good luck brother.
It’ll suck for a while.
Use the time wisely.

[ - ] DivineLight2 1 point 1 monthMar 15, 2024 20:32:27 ago (+1/-0)

Bpc-157 or something close to that, a healing peptide.
Lots of climbers, golfers, MMA, bodybuilders etc swear by it for speeding up recovery. People even healing old pain with it.

I'd recommend looking into it.

Good luck in recovery.

[ - ] Gowithit 1 point 1 monthMar 15, 2024 16:45:21 ago (+1/-0)

Morphine is a beautiful thing. Enjoy it. Glad you went down fighting haha.

[ - ] Clubberlang 1 point 1 monthMar 15, 2024 20:32:17 ago (+1/-0)

One chemical off from medical grade heroin.

Only shitty thing is you can't keep anything down.

Other than that 👍

kratom, bro

[ - ] JustALover 0 points 1 monthMar 16, 2024 11:39:07 ago (+0/-0)

May I suggest an even faster dirt bike? Why not downhill biking? Perhaps take up skydiving also?

Although, really, I doubt you'll ever be able to grasp how much of a retard you are.

[ - ] happytoes 0 points 1 monthMar 16, 2024 10:49:47 ago (+0/-0)

When I was young and healthy, I did the faggy windsurfing thing, with the tight fitting, neon coloured wetsuits. It is exciting and feels dangerous, but when it goes wrong and one falls, it is a fall into water and doesn't break anything.

You maybe have a year or two of physiotherapy ahead of you. Concentrate on swimming to rebuild strength and mobility. Then take up windsurfing. You can get your required ration of "feels dangerous" but not get injured again.

[ - ] TheOriginal1Icemonkey 0 points 1 monthMar 16, 2024 09:34:40 ago (+0/-0)

Morphine sucks compared to Dilaudid.

I always wondered. If you get surgery do they have to peep ur dick and put in a catheter? I'm a grower not a shower and I don't like the idea of nurses taking a selfies with my shriveled dong.

When your snorting 20mg Oxy you might have a problem

[ - ] Clubberlang 1 point 1 monthMar 15, 2024 20:33:34 ago (+1/-0)

Depends on where you're snorting it.

If you look up and and become fully aware a restaurant full of people are looking at you in horror yes.

[ - ] dass 1 point 1 monthMar 15, 2024 21:07:48 ago (+1/-0)

Nah not really, it's the giving out blow jobs and handies beforehand that is the bigger issue of concern (or so i've heard !! - allegedly), lol.
