...went out to town drown my sorrows tonight. Was at hospital today. Thought I was getting a lot better with my elbow and hip but got my **** kicked by the docs.
I have some kind of anterior/exterior something or other in my elbow as a result of my off which means its gonna be 8-9 months before it gets better and heals. Really ****ed off. I know I struggled on the borders rideout but thought it was a case of I'll be ok in a few weeks.
Got a serious shock tonight. Tried to lift a 4 kg weight at the physios from rest and I could not get it more than 6 inches off the table. Physio - straight away sent me for an x-ray. I went and was told I have some bad damage at the elbow joint. Annoying because I've been trying to do some stuff and can do reps of 30 press ups now since off. Could do 50-60 reps before and thought I was doing well but I never tried lifting weights.:rolleyes: Just thought the pain would sort itself out. Physio did a few movements and said I have virtually no muscle round my elbow.
Been told also I have to wear a neck brace for my neck due to the whiplash(2 weeks for 8 hours a day apparently).
Did a hand test and I could not write my name cos my thumb is fecked. Mad as a box of frogs - I obviously don't use a pen/pencil enough. Can't remember the last time I actually wrote something - how mad is that
On a plus point - got a new can on the KWAK :-D - looking on the bright side :)
