I had a 'trick knee' that popped out of the joint 2 or 3 times a year. For over twenty years, I coped by popping it back in. I finally had laser surgery and physio until I reagained 98% balance and mobility.

I dislocated my shoulder and couldn't put it back by myself. Went to the hosp. and they tied it up and I used one arm and pain killers for a couple of months. Physio helped me again.

Both my shoulder and my knee are now functioning just fine but its a little painful when the weather changes. Other than that, there are health problems that are far more serious and debilitating as you will find when you grow old.

Sometimes I think these things happen to remind us how lucky we are. You'll get over it and appreciate the use of that arm much more in the future.

Beware those physiotherapists! They are mean task-masters.
