Nice to have my personal medical issues here for thousands of people per day to see….
Anyway, I don’t have a hernia yet. I have the beginnings of one. I had the really fun “turn your head and cough” exam today… Lots o’ fun. The least the doc could have done was give me a cigarette when he was done. “Was it as good for you as it was for me?”
Turns out a hernia is where your intestine goes through a hole in your muscle tissue and actually sticks out in your….uh… family jewels area. I don’t have this but I do have a weakening of the initial area and if I do any more lifting I WILL have a full blown hernia.
Prognosis
Doc says if I cough or sneeze I need to support the area with my hand. He says if I take it easy for a couple of weeks with no heavy lifting it will heal. He also said that “pushing” is the cause and as long as I don’t “bear down” I can do whatever I want, including GOLF. Whew!
This sucks MAJOR. I moved last week. Unfortunately I moved some very heavy stuff I shouldn’t have and I believe I’m now paying the price.
I’ve never had a hernia before, but this has to be one. I can’t cough, sneeze or blow my nose without an extreme, sharp, burning pain just under my belly button. It’s getting worse, especially after I played drums in a recording session this evening.
So far it doesn’t hurt my golf swing but I’m afraid I’m going to need to go under the knife very soon. Calling the doc tomorrow.
🙁
Woa I can’t believe what I just saw. TIGER HIT A SHANK!?!!?!?! WTF? Wow.
Who thinks of The Masters in the middle of July when it’s 267 days, 13 hours, 24 minutes, and 18 seconds away? Yours truly.
You have 7 days to get your application into Augusta National for 2007 practice round tickets. I applied last year and didn’t get them. My address is different so I don’t think they’ll find me so I’m sending in a new application.
Details on what do to can be found here:

Anyone who applies and gets their tix would be FOREVER on my best buddy list if they helped me get tix!
Special thanks to The Armchair Golfer for reminding me of the deadline which is July 15th.
Someone smack this guy!
Every PGA tournament there’s some bonehead behind the tee on the par 3’s who yells “get in the hole.” If we all join together and vow to smack this idiot and shut him up we’ll all enjoy the experience more.
Dude, make sure the shot isn’t going in the gallery when you yell “get in the hole” will ya? If you have to yell it, make sure the damn shot is at least going at the flag?
