Well its been about 6weeks now. Its a slow and boring proccess, but I can now lift my arm up higher than my shoulders!
Ive been getting physio twice a week since it happened.
My main problem was that my arm broke up by the shoulder joint as well as dislocated. It broke where all the tendons from the shoulder joint attach to the arm. Its a catch 22 really. I need to get movement in the joint, but everytime I do, the break doesnt heal.
I can now start training and getting strength back in it, so most of my day consists of stretching, training and more stretching.
Im just glad they didnt have to operate. Im considering myself very lucky!
Work has been really good about the whole situation. Im considering myself lucky to have a workplace so understanding.
Racing still isnt a happening thing. I simply dont have enough strength in the joint to hold myself up. So im working hard to get some strength back so I can be at the next round.
Have set a personal goal of 30 pressups before I race again.
Ill get there. It just takes time.
