Gave up on trying to train on Sunday as I had an 8 hour night shift to do. No hours since so trying to make up for it. Monday lane swimming 2300M and coincidentally Gloucester Masters Tues evening also 2300M but alot more effort as normal when training with fellow swimmers. Planning to train in public lanes this evening and attend a 2nd club session on Thursday at Gloucester again.
Mrs Tewson still trying to get me some more work hours which might interfere a little.
Yesterday travelled 18 miles to attend a consultant appointment re. my shoulder surgery (and recovery). For some reason I managed to attend a day early!!!!! Wasted petrol and a £2.00 car parking charge. Oh well I managed to attend today (correctly) and on time . (More petrol and a £3.00 car park charge. I informed him that the shoulder seemed to be improving week by week and he agreed I will still have some pain for another 3-4 months . He seemed very concerned that the repair may not be sufficient based on my swimming requirements. Kept saying he could improve the repair and that there were some other 'things' he could do. I felt the recovery was going to plan and said so expecting to be signed off. What he has said is 'If the pain or shoulder movement does not continue to improve or gets worse to contact him immediately' so he can 'go in again' and improve the repair.
Typically I thought of lots of questions after I had left the Hospital. He said to 'swim as normal now' (I had already !!!!) 'If still painful by August to make another appointment.'
I was quite happy before the appointment today, I am now quite worried again.
Just to make matters worse I failed to lose weight last week. (None went on either). I know why, too many ham butties and other goodies. I seem to be on track this week and hopefully will have a further reduction by Saturday (Weigh Day). Oh well I havn't had a plus in weight since the new year just a few no changes and a gradual loss.
