I quit taking any pain meds, and the dull ache in my left arm (the broken one) kept me awake until 6 am. Tonight I'm taking a pill lol. Weird laying there in the dark not being able to sleep, just staring at the darkness feeling the ache of something not quite right. My right knee is still giving me fits as well. I go to ortho doc for arm exam Friday. May request an MRI on the knee.
If you have pains, it's best to get them checked out and KNOW it's normal trauma, and not something bad trauma.
Men's Fall Trip coming up Oct 8. Not sure I will be ready.
How do you even get back on the bike now aware of how quickly, painful, and possibly permanently something can happen?
I was always aware a crash could happen which is why I always wore the most armor I could- and I still got messed up pretty bad at low speed and no contact with anything.
Now that it has happened, my perspective fundamentals have changed completely.
