sometimes life's a biatch

flashback to tuesday morning: great morning, woke up in a happy mood, got ready and headed into clinic. having a great day getting things done with all the wonderful patients i have the privilege to work with. head home after clinic and knew i had a couple bikes to tune up, and a training ride to get done. as i was walking back into the house i felt a nasty pain in the thoracic region of my back, it was bad enough to put me on the floor. i laid there for 20min and wasn't feeling any better, dammmmmmmm it.. i tried everything, stretching, massage, heat, ice, ib, tylenol and nothing was helping me out......the night was a restless one as i couldn't get comfy nor calm the pain.

wed: went to clinic, had the PT i'm working with take a look, he's kind of old skool, but he did hook me up to some e-stim and that helped a bunch...the clinic's new PT arrived just as cafe rio lunch was delivered and i asked her to take a look.. after a couple tests we agreed that it was some muscle tearing from overstretching and contracting, the dx fit. i continued to take it easy and keep on the drugs for the rest of the day..

last night, i got a good night's sleep and didn't have to get up to take anything for pain the entire night, so i'm feeling better.

today: thinking about getting on my bike and doing tuesday's ride this morning, and wed's ride this evening.......then relaxing and maybe getting some dindin with my folks......

not a rant today as most tend to rant on their blogs and i try to make mine quite clear, just a dammm, sucks when little things such as life throw you a curve and put you on the floor wondering WTF just happened..
anyway, the 2 rides today should be good, hope i can pull it off.. ;~)
