i've been out for six months, my left shoulder has shifted foreward stretching all the muscles in my back. Supra spinatus and just about everything else is fucked, 450$ on private physio and it's still not better. If I go public it will be on my medical record= no military.

Mmmm...Common misconseption =p. Fat cannot be turned into muscle, fat is burned wile working on muscle. Alot of people think that too, I did for the longest time. I guess because as you work out you lose fat and your muscles get bigger and replaces it.

But I do agree with you with the hard work and dedication. I cant wait for tuesday, I actually get to start going to the gym again. In basic we couldn't go, and in airborne school I was always too sore and tired too haha

EDIT:


Dangg thats a long time haha, you gotta keep up the tradition I see =)
haha thanks, but don't thank me yet. I have yet to actually deploy, we deploy next spring to afganistan. My roomate on the other hand has been over in iraq for a combined total of 41 months. . .andd he's suffering from it. I'll tell him you said thankyou haha.

Thanks.41 months sounds killer how long are you stationed for? And goodluck to you, if you meet a marine.named mstg dorain tell him I said hey he's stationed over there he has been there a month now

Actually, there's waivers for everything now. I'm willing to bet you could get in even if they knew about your shoulder. . .it would just take a little long at "meps" its a place where you get processed and do a shit ton of paperwork and tests. Now don't get me wrong that extra time spent in there might make you wanna burn down an orphanage.

But I guess I know where your coming from, I didn't tell them I had asthma haha. And I can still run a low 13 two mile before I feel like I'm going die haha. You'd be very very surprised by how many out of shape/problematic people there are here.

Sorry to hear that though. IF you really want to get in they'll let you. I told them about my surgery on my ankles, they asked me if it's giving me any problems. I told them No, and they said Ok and it was left at that.

I'm stationed here at fort campbell for I believe 2 years, I deploy with them and all that good shit spring of 2010. After my deployment I really want to get re-classed out of infantry into psychological operations (psy-ops) as they call it.

I'm in Canada, it's more strict here ( an hour out of Halifax). I know I could get into the reserves but that's about it. They figure it's likely to reoccur putting you at a larger risk vs other members. If I don't have a fair amount of my strength back by the end of the summer i'm giving up, going public, getting an MRI and an orthopedic surgeons opinion. It's depressing as I was carved out of granite six months ago.

Ohh I gotcha, yea your best bet is probably going to a good doctor and really getting it fixxed for good...
