10. I do worry that my arms may not be able to help as much as needed

As I've said above, both shoulders have been rebuilt. My wrists are bad and I tend to get tendonitis in both. And my hands are getting arthritic.

But I've had too many surgeries in the last ten years and really REALLY don't want to have to look forward to two more. I really want to just have one biggie and not have to worry about another for a long time.

My previous surgeon retired from surgery, though he still works at the orthopedic clinic. His successor is good, though, so I will go meet him and see what he says.
