"Seriously, all major health issues are weight related. High blood pressure and cholesterol, heart disease, diabetes, some forms of cancer etc. If your are overweight you will suffer - it's as simple as that."
Not all, I was diagnosed at 16 when I was about 9.5 stone.
Nothing wrong with me apart from wonky knee & elbow - involuntarily forced to dismount from bike with terrific velocity & complete loss of dignity. Okay, I fell off.
Too much work stress and exhaustion - well, that's what I tell my MD.
Solution: winning lottery numbers. But then I suppose I need to buy a ticket first ...... ?
Brain-ache - trying to work out a way to see Charlton winning again.
Solution: just being at Argyle tomorrow. )
[cite]Posted By: Valley McMoist[/cite]Shin splints for me...
ooooh VM I feel for you I really do!!! Just about managed to get over mine before going off to Peru & our trek!!!! But I have to admit it was soooo painful..........I could hardly walk. Still didn't take a day sick though & I haven't in 8 years, going sick's for whimps!!!!!!!
To be honest, if I'm going to stay at home I want to enjoy it.............I'd rather be sick in job time ;-)

no mate in hospital for 5 days cant drive for 2 weeks after i come out aim back to work on the 4th week not to bad doctor said he would sign me off for 12-16 weeks like feck i had an operation on it before and was off for 12 weeks and i hated it back to work is the key i reckon
This is a painful one...Managed to shut the index finger on my right hand in a car door yesterday and when I say shut I mean slammed shut. Opened the door and the finger looked like something off Tom and Jerry. Woke up this morning and the finger was completely black and swollen. I had no feeling in the finger whatsoever so I went to A & E. Had an X-Ray but it's not broken but the doctor says I've killed the nerves...OUCH
I've got a scaphoid fracture, so it has to be treated like a break, 2 weeks in plaster, then more xrays to see what the damage is, then it's either 6 more weeks in plaster, or strapped and away I go.

Good luck with the op, NLA - I think you 'win' this thread...and get well soon all the rest of you.
Nought wrong with me apart from the occasional bout of Charlton-induced pessimism...

Just as well it's not earache, you'd be in big trouble!!
Remember Sash, on the Road the Car is King, Cyclist's don't pay Road Duty so have no place being on the Road :-)
not as much trouble as you would be with a stomach ache.
you try telling that to the anorexics
not that as well! :-)
What are you going to do about the dent in my car?..
Also have bruises on both arms from blood tests re kidney infection I had in November. I think I'm going down!!
Oh Yeah - Got the Charlton Athletic blues too!
so cynical for one so young - lol
not yet mate
No, dislocated my knee cap and that sort of trauma brings on early osteo-arthitis. Been diagnosed as well.
Turn my ankle over jumping over a wall (don't ask but the coppers will never take me alive ; - )
Being overweight doesn't help it but I do swimming 1000m 3 times a week which is good non-weight bearing exercise.
Just like ex-smokers are the worse people who have lost a bit of weight who then tell others off are...... : - )
Too much work stress and exhaustion - well, that's what I tell my MD.

"lenghty recovery"? - you slacker!
