I just turned 59, and I'm 6 years away from my retirement of 65. Last year, I was in between jobs, so I took off 7 months and got both of my shoulders replaced. I got a regular replacement on my right shoulder, and a reverse replacement on my left, which had more damage. I had good pt after both surgeries. While looking at an old x-ray, my dr noticed a problem in my neck. Starting in August or so, I started to get tingling in my right arm. I ended up having an mri of my neck, which was terrible being stuck in that position for so long. I also had an emg for the tingling. Now I know I have several herniated discs, and I also have carpal tunnel in my right wrist. The dr thought the carpal tunnel was causing the tingling, but now we know that it's my s6 vertebrae that is causing the tingling. I have an epidural scheduled (no baby!) soon. Thanks for letting me vent here. It's been a tough time.
