I have a similar break on the other side dating back to last october. I was having pain all the time, especially when standing or sitting without a firm brace for my shoulder and back.

I went back to the doctor in January to grill them on what was going on with this pain. They basically told me this was normal (while it should dissipate) and to man-up (more like down!) for a few more months. I left the office upset only finding it should go away in X amount of months with no definitive fix in sight!

Well, here I am today. While it doesn't hurt standing or sitting any longer I still can't sleep on it and while riding i need to change positions to no-hands to straighten my elbow once and awhile.

I did abstain from doing what I'd rather have been doing per the Doc's orders... I've got to recommend taking a break from what you'd typically do for a while, then slowly reintroduce what you were used to. It really burned me for awhile there but at least now I can start getting back on track without pushing the envelope.

good luck to you!
