My Archery Days Could

[Kanga]

Be over.

Been having pain from just below my right ear all the way down through my right shoulder into my right lower arm.

The pain finally got to me so I went to the Doctors, after doing a range of motion tests he tells me it looks like I have a herniated (sp) disk in my neckand put me on some muscle relaxants, pain meds and anti inflam meds plus some physio therapy.

If all is no better in a week or 2 I will have to go see a surgeon and have my neck fused. The Doc said I can all but kiss archery good bye if they have to do fusion as I wont be able to turn my head[:@]

I knew all those years of quick head turning to look at lovely young ladies was going to get me[8D]

Russ,
That's terrible to hear. Icertainly hope you don't have to have the surgery. Keep us posted on how it goes.

I would get a second opinion before doing the fused disc thing. That's a last resort.
