Can anyone tell me if I can work this job? I think so, but real world experience would be nice. There is a tldr. I don't want your money. I have food. Thank you.
tendon or ligament torn
I am sorry for format, on mobile and also just exhausted from personal shit….
I am an idiot. I am scared of doctors. I should have got worker's comp. Long story short. Had to have a job to keep sick ex fiance going. Became a great polished concrete specialist. Assisted an understaffed rock throwing shit show. Did 5 times the amount of the next person. Maybe not as accurate, but we didn't ruin the floor, which was on the cusp of happening at any moment. ” I threw rocks into wet concrete at the perfect moment….. well my coworker thinks I might have thrown 3 tons in the day. 2 hours before eos wrist fails throw rocks with limp hand. Whatever I'm tired. Done throwing. 1 hour goes by can't move wrist…… shit. Tell boss. He says oh it goes away happened to me once. I said alright didn't want to scare him could be fired at any time. I tough it out by stating I will do 1/4 work till end so I don't show privledge and to keep others working. 2 weeks straight working no days off 20 degree temp. Everyone is pissed. Excited for week off. End up not being able to move wrist to even open fridge for 3 days. 4 days in movement. Take an extra week, and baby it.
Never fully healed even after 1 year of non physical labor because I changed my job. I was a dumb racer kid. (Only raced in abandoned areas) I know that is still bs. I wanted to try to maybe get into amateur racing as hobby. Got nice steering wheel, and practiced. One 6 hour session left me gimp for 3 days. Not like the first time, but bad enough to not be able to do a physical job.
Please help me guys…. I talked to doc. He is a good guy. Helped me. I halfway trust him. Can't get mri because I am on poor people insurance in USA. Can't afford to drive 300 miles a week for physical therapy for a month to get mri. I said bro fucking level with me. I fucked up big right? My assessment is one of the above. He said yes.
Wrist never has been same. I had bucket head tear of meniscus getting stuck in knee joint for 4 years. Doctor first told me gout. I quit going. Used to pain, know what is and what is not serious. Only reason. I include this.
All I want to do is be able to have a 2 lb device in this fucked up hand and pull a trigger for anywhere from 8 to 14 hours a day scanning walmart shit.
It gets good pay, but I am scared this will ruin my arm. I don't want surgery until I can get it from someone reputable….
Tldr.
Doctor and I think I have torn ligament or tendon. Can I pull a trigger scanning items between 8 and 14 hours a day 4 days a week? Can't get surgery. Just going to cost till I have great insurance and find a reputable surgeon.
