Since last thursday i had huge pain in an hernia i have in the groin. I have this hernia for about the last 7 years...never consulted a doctor cause i knew i could not lift for some time (yes, i am a true powerlifter :p) but for the past 4 days it was worst than ever. Went to the gym to still try (stupid) to get some work done but it was bad.
warm-up
135 x 10 raw
225 x 5

Went to the emergency today (sept.12) so the doctor could take a look... the pain was going down and i think it's going back to normal. The doctor ask if i wanted a surgery to get it fix and i said yes. Doctor told me it could be long, like next spring or worse but i told her that i have the powerlifting world championship in Ukraine i want to do in sept. 2012 and she was really nice to me and said that i will be on priority list and maybe i could have surgery before christmas :) It's a 6 week recovery so i could have plenty of training time to get ready for national and world 2012!! For now, i will take it day by day and get the most of the good day and take it easy when it's bad... I think bench is the less affected by that problem so in worst scenario i will be bench only for a while. Let's see what the tide will bring tommorow and keep the head up no matter what.
