Close on the teeth -- filling above, bridge below. I had an oral surgeon screw up my teeth when I was a teenager, I've had a bridge on that side of my mouth since I was 19.

Recovery is OK, still have some stiff/soreness in my neck. I've also got something going on with my right shoulder, I don't know if it's connected to my neck or if it's something new. Yay.

I'm wondering if I can convince Dr B to keep me off work through January....

Welcome to the Titanium Club. ;) Hope you aren't too uncomfortable. Refresh my memory.....did you have a bad accident to warrant the new jewelry?

Nope, as Dr B put it, "just life happening". I can't help thinking 15+ years of sitting at a desk, working at a computer helped me along the way. :rolleyes:

You probably need January off to take care of whatever is happening in your shoulder...:D

Do you have the lovely scar in the front?

Yes! It's quite lovely, don't you think....:p A friend thinks I should get a zipper tattoo...

Really got the screws put to you..... :rolleyes:

Lovely scar there too.

So when to you start being tortured by PT? And will they add the shoulder to the regime? I can send you the exercises for your shoulder. After almost a year, my still doesn't like me very much. Would probably be happier with me if I actually continued my exercises like I was supposed to. Like WHO has time to do isolated exercises for an hour 3 times a week??? I have to take time to sit on my butt and pet my cat. Just ask her (Bonnie, the skinny demanding calico in the "Show us your pets" thread).

Don't get the tat', get these instead:

I always wondered how they got the bolts in ;) :p :) Then when your boss continues to bother you just say "the pressure is so intense here that if I did not have these bolts my head would fall off"
