Back Update

Got my 3 month CT scan, doc says the vertebra is 'capping'on the outside, and that the softer inside will heal slower. Lucky I had no nerve or disc damage, or leg pain or weakness. Real lucky. I've lost about a half inch of height, and this injury didn't really help my sclerosis(?) and probably made it worse. The doctor will probably have me wean myself off the brace next few weeks, and start some PT, most of which I can do myself...I'm starting a spin program for myself, at the Y, easy spin for now, but intend to ramp up slowly throughout the winter and get back into dancing on the pedals, so when Spring comes, I can get back to it with some fitness. Still intend to go easy on the tech stuff and the taking chances thing. Maybe afford a gravel bike. It'll probably be a year or more before I can safely fall off my bike again....but, I'll be Back!
