<r>Hey,<br/> <br/> I got hurt in a "ski accident" too (march 07). Lost a ski in deep snow and ran into a tree.

Re: Any suggestions on how to resume physical activity

<r>I'd recommend running to. There are some great slings out there that really work well. Here is me after my last race (<URL url="http://picasaweb.google.com/joel.rosinbum/131Marathon#5228504984522748002"><LINK_TEXT text="http://picasaweb.google.com/joel.rosinb ... 4522748002">http://picasaweb.goog...

Re: Temporary or Permanent??

Hi Dy,

I bought a manual car 3 months before my accident. I traded cars with my parents for their automatic. One year later I had enough recovery to be able to shift again and I traded back.

Cheers,
Joel

Hey Robin,

How did you get your bike set up? I'd love to see what you figured out.

Re: Surgeon help Newly injured

I went back home to Portland about 5 days after the surgery and started PT about 4-5 weeks later. I had to wait for a bunch of the muscles to heal after the operation.

Re: Spasms

You should really give acupuncture and massage a try. I do both. Acupuncture 2x/week and massage every other week.
