Bench was going great tonight; best weights I've pressed in weeks and all nice and low to the chest. Last set was 2 reps of 107.5kg. No shoulder pains. Then did close grip lat pulldown. Still all good. Then warm up on 60kg incline press and...f**k...my shoulder cracked the shits. Felt like I dislocated it or something. Couldn't even finish the set. Now can't move arm in certain ways (specifically above my neck and across my body) without it hurting.

Gonna book for scans tomorrow; looks like I'm deadlifting and squatting indefinitely.

That sucks.

Is it a pinching type of pain? Does it 'pop' when you move it high or across?

Yes it's pinching and if I can stand the pain of moving my arm high it does pop eventually. Can't even take my farkin T shirts off, it's ridiculous. Still can't believe a 60kg incline press did this...

Doc pressed on a few places and seems to think inflammation of the supraspinatus/bursa; prescribed anti-inflams. I reckon it's a tear/rupture though, so I insisted on an ultrasound referral. See what the imaging reveals I guess.

Sucks :(

Hopefully ultrasound will give you more information and you can get it sorted.

but your life isn't that bad

should of insisted on an MRI referral.

Ultra sound will only show youve got an injury/fluid.

MRI will actually show length, extent of injury etc.

MRI will also set him back a shitload of money. Prior to healthcare reimbursements (which won't be much anyway), the MRI my mate got on his knee not too long ago here in ACT cost somewhere just over $500.

$500 is not a shitload of money when it comes to your health.

Most people wouldn't think twice about spending $500 on their car.....your body is with you for the rest of your life

Oh I'm not saying it isn't worth it; merely saying that perhaps jumping straight to an MRI isn't necessarily the way to do it. I'd go with the ultrasound first up as it's probably close enough to free for there to be no real reason NOT to bother, and then depending on the results of the ultrasound you could push for the MRI.

With the shoulder it could be anything but it sounds similar to my injury which is bicep tendinitis - basically the tendon that runs from the bicep to the shoulder is enflamed and pinches and pops as it passes through the hole(?) causing the pain.

Physio, Voltaren, stretching and no chest work for 4-6 weeks cured it for me but then it came back again. And no overhead presses of any sort!

Good luck with whatever it is :)

    • Sounds good Hmm suppose the main thing is, how much do you care about this car? The filler doesn't make for a very good water barrier lol. If there was a tiny little bit of rust forming now, that in 3 to 5 years time becomes obvious under the paint (starts to bubble up), would it bother you? 
    • I already have the ability to datalog the voltage... what I can't do is correlate it to what the gauge is showing when I'm looking at the data at a later date. Or something like this. Except getting the oil to 125C+ involves me going 200+kmh at the track so you can imagine this is a little tricky unless I do something like note what the voltage is when I am at the top of 5th gear so I have a point to reference on. Drove car today. O2 still reading richer because hopefully not a leak instead of massive restriction I've introduced. Car really doesn't sound like a LS. It's quite strange. Pulled a bit of fuel out up top. This does potentially explain why my spark plugs looked like the car was running pretty over-rich. If I was tuning it to a ~12.7 which in reality was far richer than that in the past. It will be handy to have the dyno WB to compare my WB to to compare notes that's for sure. At this point I'm happy to just sit in the passenger seat and tune the thing given I've got about 7 million hours on the platform lol.
    • Yeah I understand you have to pay for an updated map or subscription service or something. But I can't even find a current map for Australia. My map is dated 2017, but didn't this car version still sell in Australia until 2021?   Also, just as an aside, the navigation system warns you of traffic incidences ahead.....why would they include that on a map they knew is not receiving live information. I am forever going to be warned of an incident that probably existed for 30 minutes 8 years ago.
