Some things just suck...

After all the drama's with my bike, i took it into work Friday and had fred the wonderman map it for me.. He said he updated and changed a few things, ride it and tell him how it goes..


Now to go back a step.. For about 2 and a half months I've had hip pain, tried not to worry about it.. got to point of having to do something when I could hardly walk, and sitting on the bike feels like my hip is being forced out of the socket... doc said he had no idea what was wrong, gave me script for xray and ultrasound, had xray, had to wait for ultrasound. I had to wait another week and a half to know what day I could swing around work to get in, I call and oh no they say, you can't have them more than a week apart on the same script. So back to the doc I go (diff one) she says oh you've just pulled the muscle, here take some drugs, have the ultrasound, come back and we'll cortisone you. But in the meantime, no bike and no exercise.

Today I have the ultrasound, I went to the wrong place first, but was only 5 min late to the proper one.. must have pissed them off cos I was there for nearly two hours! But they found a calcification in my hip which isn't supposed to be there, its aggravating the tendons in my leg and hip, so I have to go back to my doc who has to refer me to an orthopedic surgeon.

So no bike for me for god knows how long. It's finally good and I'm not..

Know what you mean Tanya. After drooling over the 10 for best part of 2 years, I finally get one, run it in and bugger my shoulder. 3 weeks already and I'm gagging for a ride, still waiting for surgery!

How they sort you quicker then the have with me

That's a real bugga mate. Really sorry to hear and yes your having a bad run so it can only get better, right

Oh sweetie that must hurt.

Don't try the cortisone it's to hard to get off it. It surpesses the real aggrivated point of pain.

I hope it heals soon.

Not good to hear Tanya hope it all gets sorted out asap and you can get back to enjoying life more comfortably

Buddy, thats shithouse news.. Hope its all sorted soon champ..

aww crap..no fun...

want me to fly up and practice riding ya z??

i need practice, it needs a good run...

if they sort ya out real quick, then we can talk shit abt how good we really are... and have pics to prove it?

Bugger Tan, thats a shocker.....hope they sort it ASAP

that totally sucks.

im so sorry hope it all sorts itself out and your not waiting around to long.


all the best.

All the best Tanya, sucks to be immoble for what ever reason.

Make sure they get it right the first time, ya don't want to go thru the op and the physio just to have the prob crop up in 2 years time!

no good tan

all the best chick

That's a real bugger Tanya, but at least you now know what is going on and what has to be done for it. If you need anything give me a hoy.

Hope they get it sorted and corrected soon, that first ride back will seem so much sweeter!

The good news is they can probably fix it which is a good thing if your in pain hope ya got private health cover though or it could take forever.

There is a heap of volunteers waiting to test the rev limiter for you.

Thanks for the well wishes

Anne I was going to call you to help explain to me the medical terms that were in the letter with the films I ended up googling them, and found lots more complicated words to go with them

And no health insurance.. if it turns out I have to have an op, waiting forever might be a good thing as I simply don't have the money at the moment.
