Saw an Ortho guy today in Encinitas. Long story short: Hit a wall playing racquetball in Dec. 05. Hit it just right and was diagnosed with a 1st-2nd degree shoulder separation. Told to live with it.....Been treating it with cortisone over the years. The last two injections did nothing and have had a VERY painful June.
Had an MRI in 07 (somehow nothing was ever done with it) and took it with me, along with a recent x-ray, to the Doc.
SO, he looks at the MRI and says, "Torn Labrum, Rotator Cuff torn, possible biceps tendon tear, Arthritis under the Collar bone!
SIX months healing time!! Fme! And that's gotta happen before REHAB.......possibly 3 months no cycling!
This is crap! wahhhhh for me.........geeze.


just sayen.......

I bet I'm cycling within 4-6 weeks being the wuss I am......if I were a REAL man, it would be within a few days of the surgery.
