Ouch

Hi Friends

My weight loss program has hit a problem over the last week. Last Monday I went to the gym in the evening and on one of the weight training exercises I decided it was time to increase the weight by 1 weight.

Everything was fine and on Tuesday I went to work as usual with no aches or pains from the previous nights gym session. On the Wednesday morning however I woke with a sore left shoulder which got progressively worse until I did not get any sleep during Saturday night. In the morning my wife Sharon drove me to the local A&E/ER where they xrayed my shoulder. I was fully expecting to be sent home with a strain diagnosed however to my horror the xray showed that my humerus has dropped out of its socket. I now have my arm in a sling and have to visit the fracture clinic on 03/03/2009 for them to assess how to treat it.

The pain is something else and I am doped up on strong pain killers. I cannot drive, swim or go to the gym. So ladies and gents if you are on a fitness program I implore you to take things slowly. Warm up and stretch before doing any weight training and warm down and stretch at the end of your session.

I will post after I have been to the fracture clinic to let you know the outcome.

Kind Regards

Mark

    Hi mark hope your shoulder well on the mend,
    I do alot of runing as part of my get fit regime and love it now, but like you say very important to warm up and cool down properly so many people dont bother.

    Just to say the blog looks great will check back on your progress.

    shame about the cb ad rotator spoils the overall brilliant look of your blog

    To our success Adam J,T student
