| davelevine | 2 days | Skin still needs to heal up and the elbow isn't 100% but it is feeling much better, probably 80-85%. I'm feeling much better. Even though it was my elbow that hurt the most I decided not to bicycle on Thursday. This decision was also made based on the fact that it was still very windy. I resumed bicycling on Friday and am feeling much better now 48 hours after my fall. | details |

| Bethany | 7 days | Stitches out in a few days. Am able to ride and run without too much pain. Got my bike back today in better working condition than before the guy hit in. Maybe that is a positive spin on it all. | details |

| bishop22 | 9 days | Need to be a little more careful when reading the map, as my feet don't have much ground clearance, making it easy to stumble on stuff. | details |
| hansolo | 9 days | Basically, I can run, do leg stuff, abs, and some upperbody. Rock climbing is easier than grappling. But at least it gets easier from here | details |

| ksumner11 | 22 days | 12/31/08 - Finally got an x-ray of the thumb. Not broken but probably tore something. It still swells up if I hit it on stuff. I'm thinking of wrapping it. Doctor says I'm fine to ride and stuff. | details |

| darryn | 31 days | I think I'm healed now. Only problem I've had in the last couple weeks was doing bear crawls at boot camp. I suspect it will be alright next time I have to do something like that. | details |

| mayer22 | 36 days | Orthopaedic took some of the fluid out (6/4) and gace me a cortisone shot. This made it much more manageable to bend my elbow. I had to rest for a week or so after the procedure and make sure not to bump it but that is a small price to pay. Next time consider draining it earlier if possible. | details |

| Siobhan | 56 days | I am pretty certain this is fully resolved. A much easier recover simply because I don't have to walk on my arms all day every day. Think Christmas break will be good for knees to recover too | details |

| richf | 731 days | FYI-conduction study study sounds benign but = driving pins in the skin at multiple points, running current through, and looking at signal strength to isolate any break in path. For peripheral nerve damage there isn't much they can do. Wait it out; see what happens. Generally whatever recovery you get at 2 years is it. In this case there was some permanent loss of right grip strength, maybe 20%. Also if exercising through a dehydration state the first cramping now occurs in the right han... | details |
