You know, I had never thought about the bra issue with a collar bone!

It would probably be good to eat lots of anti=inflammatory foods like spinach and broccoli. I know there's more, I just can't think of 'em right now.

Right..Time for a short update..or a few updates..

As far as i can tell/feel, the BPV has disappeared Fark it was annoying!! I only had to do the Brandt & Daroff exercise once...

My knee is still sore/tender where the MCL is..not sure if it's going to feel that way for a while?? I see the ortho on monday.. (at least the leg brace floats ) but really have no clue what's next..

The main issue for me right now is understanding how my collarbone should feel at this stage of the game. When i swim it's getting used to a whole new feeling in the collarbone area. It's not going to stop me from swimming as i'm going as slow as i possibly can. I also do modified pilates at a studio & the staff have created a post injury program where i work on strengthening things.

My shouler is still quite sore & i can't lay on my left side as it's quite tender. I often can't reach with my left arm over to my right shoulder as it feels as if my shoulder's stuck.

What were your experiences with a collarbone injury??? Any suggestions and does this sound familiar?

Thanks
