Default recuperation


I guess I'm not going to be cycling for a few weeks. Somehow I have
separated my shoulder. The doc says it's definitely a sprain and possibly a
fracture - pending x-rays.

And I have no idea how I did it!

I cycle commuted Mon/Tues. Nothing unusual. It's a fairly standard 15-20
minutes each way; city streets and MUP's, no off-road extreme cycling.

My off-day, Wed, thanks to the weather I loafed and did little. Thursday I
did a morning swim and an evening swim; one hour each, my usual set. I tend
to concentrate on using my upper body to balance cycling's effect on the
lower body. I felt a twinge and figured it was just a sore muscle.

Friday morning I'm sore and stiff as all get-out; hence the trip to my
doctor. He says a week to 10 days in a sling and 3-4 weeks of light duties
and no cycling/swimming.

I don't mind missing word but the no swimming/cycling is going to hurt.


Nothing to do but post to the internet [left handed typing at that]

*sigh*

Wish I knew how I managed it though.
