Never had chest pains until I saw that Alana Blanchard thread. After that, I felt like Fred Sanford. "Elizabeth, I'm comin' to join you, Honey!!!"
Yup, carefully, a few times. It's been kinda flat here lately, so I aint missed much. Y'all got some really nice incest events this summer. Maybe there's still time for one in the Gulf...
i did that on a wipeout in capemay on a left - i hit the f00kin water so hard! IT DID TAKE SOME TIME TO GET RIGHT.
Wish ya well, dude. Having bones movin in your chest area is kinda creepy. Still get a dull pain every few weeks or so, outa the blue, then it goes away. Maybe that's how it's gonna be from now on.
Really, this is no place for medical advice! What happens to me come to find out was stress and diet retaliated. Turned out to be an ulcer in my esophagus caused by acid reflux. After an endoscopy it was found. Not debilitating but changed my habits. Hope your feeling better soon. Get it checked out!
Some of you sound like weak wimps. "I fell off of my board, hit the water and got hurt...snif, snif, waaaah". Are you guys still being breastfed?? I have been surfing 50+ years now, including very big swells in some hairy areas....never got hurt. whiners.....
Stop drinking donq rum. BTW, that ulcer in your esophagus can someday mutate into cancer. You better be taking nexium or similar drug, dude! First stage is Barretts syndrome - did your GI doc tell you that?? If not, get another doc.
LOL Yeah, I'm a lady part. We have a few here with some war stories. Maybe more skate injuries than surf, though. Mine actually started at work breakin concrete out of a street. Surfin just broke it open a second time. Consider yourself fortunate, Mr Barry, for stayin off the disabled list. Hope you ain't jinxed now.
Thanks Barrycuda,yes I am aware of this and yes I am on nexium. Sucks to know that we are not perfect as humans. There's a lot of things that can mutate into cancers. Just trying to give some insight and help a brother out that has concerns. Don't be scared. By the way stay out of the sun!
