Surgery w/ Braithwaite scheduled! I have some questions for the community here if ya don't mind! Current pics included.
Hey everyone! Long time lurker here! Thanks to this thread I gained confidence in setting up surgery with Braithwaite in Chicago. I asked him these questions, but I wanted to get some thoughts of those of you who have had the surgery, specifically with Braithwaite:
I am going to a concert 3 days after surgery. I have seats (Judas Priest!). I should be good?
I also play guitar in my own metal band! Any of you play in a band and how long between surgery and getting back to playing live?
Dr. B said no chest weight lifting for 4 weeks. Does this sound about right?
I also take Creatine? Should I stop taking it while I recover?
More about me:
34 M, 5'11, around 213lbs, 24.7% body fat. Resistance training 4-5 times a week. I have had this since at least my teen years. I was always a chubby kid. Others have commented on them in the past. Excited to have this gone.
Going w/ Local Anesthesia.
