so, I did an endo in a little dirt and grass field not far from home, just now. My laptop and other sundries were in my bag on my back. Luckily, I broke the fall with my FRIGGIN’ SHOULDER! Holy ow. As soon as I got up, realizing what had happened, the pain kicked in. Major pain. It has calmed a little as I have begun learning how to not anger it. My hand and forearm work just fine, but anything requiring my upper arm to move away from my body is several kinds of agony. Ow.
So, I am pumped full of 1000mg of ibuprofen, had a hot bath (getting out was not easy, and drying is going to have to be of the “drip” variety for a while), and now I’m in an odd position on the couch, from which I can protect said shoulder. Ow. I don’t think it’s out of its socket or anything; my guess is that I just tore or strained some muscles. Ow.
So, no kayaking tomorrow, for sure (couldn’t lift a paddle, let alone a boat). No biking (I tried that on the way home; no dice). I suppose I could walk, as long as I keep arm-swing to a minimum. >:(
