Last week I made a post regarding my shoulder and how I had surgery (labrum repair on my left shoulder)
Now just a few days afterwards I began training for basic.. Mind you I've haven't been as active in the gym since starting my current job. So I went out for a jog at 3 in the morning, ran by my park and thought hey I'll be doing monkey bars at basic should also practice a few of these. Once doing that, I got the bright idea to do a Kipling pull-up (I use to do these a lot last spring - summer). I did a few and kept on going with my jog
Once I came back inside the house from the cold my body began warming down and I began feeling a sudden pain in my shoulder, i could still lift it no loss of motion and no extra pain lifting it in different directions just pain deep inside the shoulder.
I called my boss and told him I'd like to lay off from the heavy lifting and he said I'd need a doctors note so I went to the ER and got it checked out, doc asked if it came out I said no, checked strength, was fine. Told me ive sprained it and it's inflamed and to take some ibuprofen. Took and X-ray and no chipped bone, but no MRI done and that would only tell what had happened
I was scheduled for an medical today but called yesterday and cancelled it while also closing my file until I figure out what the situation is with my arm so I can tell the med tech the right info.
I'm meeting with my physical therapist today to discuss and go from there and also have an appointment booked with my family doctor.
If by chance I find out I've torn my rotator cuff again and will be needing surgery will I still have a chance at getting into the military? Ive already had a labrum repair on the same shoulder in 2011
Or if my physical therapist recommends I start rehab again
I'm sitting here just shooting myself in the foot because of how stupid I was to try that pull-up without warming up and in the cold after a no less than 3-4 minutes into my jog
I don't know what to do, I'm not allergic to anything, not diabetic, perfect vision.. The one and only thing that's now actually in my way is the shoulder
Such luck after making that post from last week, it didn't affect me at all ever since I got it fixed and just days before my medical i shoot myself in the foot :-\
