Ugh, bad news.....
« on: August 03, 2012, 05:56:18 PM »
Well, saw the doc today.  Was supposed to be the day to get out of this brace and start rehab next week.  Well I had to be honest with him and told him that when I am not in the brace I start to feel tension and my head starts to feel like a bowling ball after a while if I'm not on meds.  He did some range of motion and strength tests and feels that I need 3 more weeks of rest before I can begin rehab/PT.  He doesn't think the muscles are strong and recovered enough to really handle being pushed and pulled and stressed yet.  Of course this means that the idea of me fishing in 3 weeks got pushed back even further.   rgmn rgmn

Still good for October 4th tuna trip according to him.   5hrug

Trust me I know how much it  sucks ::) , but you only have 1 spine, its better to wait 3 more weeks then to screw things up. 
Hang in there.

That's right, and we all know from another post the advantages of an erect spine.  (sorry, I had to do that).  ;D


Listen to the Doc, don't over do it. In time, you will be able to get back into action.  t^

Its better to sit in a boat and think about God, than to sit in a church and think about fishing.

I know man, but this is frustrating.  You know how bad I just want to go sit out there with a nice drift and a wet line!?

Your body will heal at it's own pace.

Must be frustrating but hang in there Mike
