depression from surgery

[bpoppapumpp]

i just got home from having to have an emergence appendectomy. and now i'm all depressed and pissed off. why is it, that just when you start doing good, you get kicked back down. the past few weeks have been my best progress in the gym ever(finally got up to 208lbs. and still lean) and now this. and to top it off, i had to cancel my trip to the arnold, the only trip that i really look forward to every yr. and now i can barely walk without tons of pain. it's funny how they say that it's better to be in great shape for a surgery, but i say bullshit, the more muscle they have to go through, the longer and harder to recover.) sorry guys, i just had to rant a little. hasn't been a good day.

I HEAR YOU...I HAD A HERNIA SURGURY AND A BICEPS TEAR.

FULLY RECOVERED FROM BOTH .....THE ARNOLD THING JUST PLAIN SUCKS! HANG IN THERE.........YOU'LL BOUNCE BACK. I WAS REALLY PISSED WHEN MY BICEP TORE AND ROLLED UP TO MY SHOULDER. I WAS IN GREAT CONDITION WHEN IT HAPPENED AND IT WAS LIKE. THREE WEEKS LATER AND I LOOKED CRAPPY IN COMPARISON. ON THE GOOD SIDE THE ARM RECOVERED AND IS NOW BETTER THAN THE OTHER ONE.

WE ALL GO THROUGH IT UNLESS YOU ARE VERY VERY LUCKY!

thanks for the words of encouragement guys. i really need them right now.

and jethro, that makes me feel good hearing about a full recovery from the hernia surgery. cause right now, my stomach is all bloated out and i feel like the scar tissue will never go down. my dad had some surgeries on his stomach cavity and the bloating never went back down(but he also didn't work out), so thats why i'm soo worried i guess. hopefully i'm wrong and all will be back to normal soon.

NO PROBLEM! HEY, SINCE YOU ARE LAYING AROUND ANYWAY....

LOOK THROUGH SOME OF YOUR OLD MUSCLE MAGS.....IF YOU LOOK CLOSE YOU'LL NOTICE THERE ARE MORE THAN A FEW PEOPLE WHO HAVE APPENDIX SCARS. THEY BARELY SHOW..........OH, AND GEORGE FARRAH....WAS SHOT IN THE STOMACHE....AND HE COMPETES IN PRO SHOWS. TRUST ME......THINGS GET BETTER. IT SUCKS WHEN YOUR PLANS GET SCREWED UP BY SOME BULLSHIT LIKE THAT!

stay positive

You should try training hand strength. You should get some crush grippers, and some dexterity balls. Or that's why i did after having surgery in 2003.
It helped me to know that even though i was gonna be losing muscle and strength, my hands would be stronger to help me jump back into the weights on a positive note.
