I had an MRI appointment this morning, after injuring myself in the gym a couple weeks ago. I was hoping against all odds that it would come back clean but not so much. The impression indicates a partial supra tear and a labral tear. I’m waiting to hear back from my doctor now about the next steps. Has anyone else had a similar injury?
I hurt my shoulder in the gym a couple weeks ago. I was warming up for dumbbell bench press. I put the weights up and then I heard a crunching noise in my left shoulder. Next thing I know, my arm completely gave out and I had to drop the weight. I knew right away that I was pretty messed up. I’ve suffered a few injuries as a result of training; strained back, pulled hamstring, etc.
I went to the ER and the doctor sent me to get X-rays. Those came back negative. I was discharged with the diagnosis of a potentially partially torn rotator cuff. I went to see my doctor a week later and they didn’t really have a definitive stance on what it could be. My doctor made an appointment for me to get an MRI at the end of the month.
I’m hoping that I didn’t tear my rotator cuff but everything I look at online points to that because I can’t lift my arm above my head. Has anyone had a similar experience before? My range of motion has improved since the injury and I feel a bit stronger but I still don’t have full range of motion.
I received my Dream Air SE LH a week ago. I was getting back into my routine after being out of town for a bit so I wasn’t able to get to it right away. I finally unboxed it yesterday and got to mess around with it for an extended period of time. I was a bit apprehensive at first, after seeing a lot of the horror stories posted on this subreddit.
Fortunately, I didn’t have any issues with my unit being used by someone else or having blemishes/imperfections. Everything was in pristine condition. My headset still had the plastic peel on the lenses. I had one minor hiccup, due to needing to calibrate the eye tracking and that was pretty much the only issue. It has been smooth sailing ever since. No dead pixels, which I was pretty thrilled about. I didn’t want to have to deal with sending my unit back and waiting on an exchange.
Once I made sure everything was working properly, I started with the comfort mods. I installed the Studioform X1P face gasket and a 3D printed bracket that allowed me to use the Apple Vision Pro Dual Knit Band. Wow! What a game changer. I didn’t think the Dream Air SE was terribly uncomfortable with all the original parts but these new additions make using it much more enjoyable.
I tried the SBoys3 driver via Pimax EVO but it didn’t work for me. It made my display in both eyes show everything sideways. It could’ve been a messed up menu setting but I didn’t want to troubleshot anything. I just wanted to play games.
I bought the Dream Air SE for room scale VR. I have a Crystal Super 50 PPD in my office that I use for sim racing. I have enjoyed my experience with the Dream Air SE immensely over the last couple days. Hopefully it will hold up in terms of durability and longevity.
Just saw this come across my YouTube feed. Tyriel was pretty positive about the Dream Air SE SLAM. I put my order in for it this morning, prior to seeing this review. It was a pleasant surprise.
Selling my pair of Schiit Tyr monoblock speaker amplifiers. They have a black finish. They’re in excellent condition and sound amazing. They’ve been able to drive everything I’ve connected them to without any issue or difficulty at all. However, I have decided to let these go because I have entirely too much gear and not enough time to listen to it all. The cost of purchasing a new pair of Tyr amps from Schiit is around $3600 with sales tax and shipping charges added. Could be a little more or a little less, depending on your location. I unfortunately no longer have the original packaging so these will have to be picked up locally. I can meet up anywhere in Hampton Roads, Virginia.
Price is $2800 OBO for the pair. I can accept Cash, Zelle, Venmo, or Apple Pay.
I put this together, over the last few weeks. I want to say thanks to everyone on this subreddit for posting your rigs and providing information to a layman like me that’s just getting into the hobby. I tried to keep my costs fairly low because I’m so new to all of this. The only thing that’s top of the line is my PC haha but that’s a system I already built for gaming in my living room. I’m still waiting on Next Level Racing to restock their shifter/handbrake mount as well as their overhead monitor mount.
Once I get my hands on those, I’ll be very satisfied with this setup. Thanks again everyone. Time to enjoy some Forza Horizon 6. 🫡
Oh by the way, if anyone is wondering whether or not the NLR Elite Direct Monitor Mount will support a Neo G9 57” monitor… it absolutely does!
