Hey well welcome to the club. I'm in your same shoes for the most part, except I havent gotten surgery yet. If you had surgery, and if you done some PT to strengthen that shoulder than I would think you're good to go. You might want to try the wind tunnel. Read some of the previous posts, it might help you. Good luck.

I'm glad they fixed yours and you're good to go. What kind of surgery did they do? How long did it take till you started jumping again? Thanks for your post

PM on the way? I know what you're thinking with the free clinic thing, but this free clinic happens to be the best of the best. :) It is actually a very nice clinic. Very clean, not crowded. When I was there there was only 8 other people there. Its by appointment only. I'm really thankful that there even is something like this.

So since I dont have insurance. Here in Oregon there is this wonderful free clinic. I had an appointment today, saw a doctor and now next month I'm seeing the orthopedic. From there I shall be getting my surgery :) So far so good.

Thank you I really appreciate it.

Thank you for the reply. I'm going this saturday to the doctors and see what we can do. I will keep everyone up to date, as far as what is going on. Hopefully it will be fixed soon because I want to do this so bad. Thanks again

Thank you for the info. I really appreciate it. And yes a lot of what you said didn't make sense to me hopefully soon I will understand it. Thanks again

Thanks for your post. I appreciate all the info. Well I'm located in Oregon. So the closest wind tunnel is in Seattle or in San Francisco. Little out of my way but I'm willing to do anything. I've obvioiusly never done this so I dont really know what you mean by hanging exit or skyvan and what not, but I trust you by probably not being able to do that. I'm going to look into getting surgery and deal with the lost time but hopefully after that I will be good to go. I've said this many times but I will say it again. I want to do this more than anything I've never had a passion like this in my life so this is what I want to do and what I'm going to do. Thank you once again

Thank you for your post. It surely wasn't a bundle of joy :) but like you said it's reality. My last dislocation happend about 2 years ago, but I'm more then certain there is a fair amount of instability. So I'm going to look into surgery and hopefully make this happen sooner than later. I want to do this more than anything. I've never had a drive like this in my life. So whatever it takes. Once again thank you. Maybe one day I'll see you in the sky.

Its my left shoulder. Like I said I really want to do this more than anything. And thank you so much for your reply.

So I'm wanting to start my AFF, but I have one concern and that is that I have dislocated my shoulder about 5 times. I haven't done it for awhile but there are certain posistions where I feel like it could come out. I really want to fly more than anything and I would hate it if I couldn't due to this. Any feed back would be great. Thank you so much
