Frustrations Abound

So, in the near month since I've posted here things have not improved while the marathon that I was supposed to have run passed me by. That was October 16th. I can't with any real objectivity tell you if I feel better now than I did when I last wrote, but I can tell you that I am far, far, far from getting back to running.

I stopped taking anti-inflammatory meds a couple of weeks ago and the pain in my abdomen and groin returned with perhaps more vengeance than expected. I think I was actually worse off after the month on meds than before! Not good.

I started physio and stumped the hell out of him. I am not starting massage therapy (this afternoon) to see if something can be done. The best guess at this point is that I have multiple issues stemming from a tight/strained/torn/fucked up psoas muscle. Who knows what other things are also hurt as a result given how connected everything is down there.

In any case, I'm in pain...

At least Game 6 of the World Series was so interesting that I (almost) forgot about my ailments for a short while! Here's looking forward to another great game tonight when the World Series champion will be crowned.

Sorry to hear that your injury is still around - I was hoping that you were going to say that you were back to running now.

One of the people that I follow sounds like she has a similar problem to you:

Game 6 yesterday was indeed insane, hope today is as good!
