Jeff was my roommate in medical school and later trained at one of the top orthopedic programs in the USA. He was a better student than I was. As kids, we climbed, weight lifted, and flew hang gliders together. We are now old dogs, so we compared injuries, and I have had more. Our dialog will amuse you. Here are a few other things we discussed:

• Jeff says that stem cell injections work poorly for arthritis.
• Steroid injections and cartilage removals create joint destruction and lead to the big surgery sooner. Both are a bad idea.
• The operation time for joint replacements is usually short—between an hour and two hours.
• Anticoagulation is used for months after some joint replacements.
• Some people can use joints that seem worn out, according to the X-rays. Since these surgeries are done for symptoms, you do not need the procedure if you have little pain. Jeff said that if you have no joint space, most people get better with an implant.
• Checking the urine and the teeth for infection before joint replacement is prudent because infections are life-altering and can spread from sources like these. Dental “spiral CT scans” can be used to be sure patients do not have hidden abscesses of the mouth.

I studied this subject when considering what to do with my sore shoulders, and I thought my listeners would like more information. Another factoid: RFK, Jr. told me that he had all six of his major joints--his hips, shoulders, and both knees--replaced or revised. All are working well. 

The general principle is that you never consider these surgeries unless you have significant pain and are taking painkillers to sleep at night. If your discomfort is tolerable, you do not want to endure the risk, hassles, and recovery of a joint replacement or other surgery for orthopedic problems. Even if your X-rays look terrible, sensible surgeons do not recommend reconstructions or joint replacements when symptoms are modest. Many situations will improve if you are patient and carefully rehabilitate yourself.

You can investigate your case by getting x-rays and seeing the orthopedist if you have chronic, moderate pain. Find out who has the most experience with the procedure you might need and see what they think. 

The hip replacement procedure won an award as the safest and most effective surgery of the 20th century. This is not entirely true; cataract surgery is better. Hip replacements rarely have complications, but if they get infected, it is life-altering. On the other hand, cataract surgery has almost no problems in experienced hands and consistently improves vision. Some newer lenses can help you see near and far, like bifocals.

Although knees are done more commonly, shoulder replacements are the second most predictable total joint surgeries after hips. In experienced hands, however, shoulders have excellent results with proper rehabilitation. If your tissues and body are reasonably healthy before the surgery, your chances of a perfect outcome are high. I had little pain and took no opioid painkillers after mine.

My friends have all had great results and needed no pain drugs after their knee replacement recoveries. However, published reviews of this surgery show that up to 50% of patients still require painkillers following the surgery. These also get infected more often than hips or shoulders. The factors that predict excellent results are good health, bone quality, and the surgeon's skill. Skill is directly related to the number of cases done—experience. Always ask your surgeon how many like yours he has performed.

Naomi was at rock bottom with no income or family to lean on. She decided to monetize on her given talents and use her creativity to support herself.

People laughed when she said she was starting a design firm. Instead of letting it bring her down, she used it as fuel to propel herself ahead and prove them wrong. She pushed herself hard to get to the top of the design world. She did her first few projects free of charge to get her name out. With a good reputation, one referral came after the next and she never had to advertise.

Today, years later, she is considered a leader in the design field and constantly get asked by beginner designers for advice or to watch her work. She spends endless hours with all, setting them up to start businesses of their own.

A true leader creates more leaders!

Jimmy Clare is a motivational speaker, Autism Advocate, author, and founder of CrazyFitnessGuy. But before he started his career as a speaker it was a bumpy road when he was younger.

Jimmy's Biography

Jimmy was born on October 9th in Millburn New Jersey United States. After the birth of Jimmy, doctors told Jimmy's parents that he will not be able to walk without braces or crutches. His family took him home and loved him for who he is.

He was also bullied in school from elementary school all the way up to high school. He then stood up to all the bullies and got some of them expelled.

He went through nine ear surgeries, and three surgeries in one day. One for 6 wisdom teeth, 2 moles, and the last ear surgery that made number 9.

He just keeps proving people wrong with his persistence time after time again.

On top of those obstacles, he lives with spinal stenosis every day. For those that don't know what Spinal Stenosis is it's where the spine is pressing tight on the spinal cord. Which makes it hard for him to turn his head from left to right or up and down.

What Makes Jimmy So Unique?

He is Autistic but he likes to refer to it as "slightly Autistic" because he doesn't have it severe like others.

Dedicated And Continues To Better Himself

Every day he continues to better himself by working out 6 to 9 times a week. three days a week he practices kickboxing while on the other days he works out on Beachbody on Demand. That's why people refer to him as CrazyFitnessGuy.

He also enjoys reading books that he schedules time out of the day to read. But that's not all he also likes to listen to podcasts about improving oneself and time management.

He is currently majoring in media studies at my local community college and once he has completed his certificate, he plans on getting his degree in a four-year school. His end goal is to become a motivational speaker to inspire people around the world.

On April 12th, 2020 Jimmy also started his own podcast called CrazyFitnessGuy Healthy Living Podcast. He is almost finished with season one and already preparing for another season.

Practices What He Preaches

Jimmy Clare practices what he preaches every day even if he messes up he keeps trying. He is one of a kind that no one can replace or replicate him.

What Makes Him Different From Other Public Speakers?

He is no ordinary public speaker. He was diagnosed with Non-Verbal Learning Disorder also known as Autism and this is what he considers to be his unique advantage.

There was a point in his life where he thought being different was a bad thing and he was scared that something was wrong with him. But he was younger then and he didn't quite understand what Autism was, this has changed now that he is an adult.

He Has Experienced A Lot of Uphill Battles In Life...

Growing up he was considered to be a little bigger around the middle than other kids his age and it may have been that his diet wasn't the greatest plus he was on medication that caused weight gain (side-effects). However, it was necessary for him to take the medication to help stabilize his moods and emotions.

The weight gain led to bullying and as a result, he was determined to come off his meds and he did over time. He got bullied so often and it was so bad that he would go home in tears every day. It was a horrible experience and he vowed to change all of that. He lost the weight. Jimmy stood up to the bullies and put an end to the bullying.
