That the reason I joined this group is because I had an injury I need RA - that's Runners Anonymous - I want to run!!! Apparently the pharmacy that supplies the imaging centers with the tracer for the bone scan had supply issues - so my bone scan was postponed and now I won't have it done until Monday. Meanwhile - although my leg is feeling much better - and I have no more single leg jump inhibition, and I have already taken 2 1/2 weeks off from running, I still haven't been "cleared" to run - although I have come close to "flying" on the elliptical!!! On a positive note, I am looking at weight training with a new eye It's going to be a loooong week-end - I should get my lab work back on Monday from the endo, and my DEXA scan and bone scan results on Tuesday from the orthopedic doc. After that, the next time I see a doc it better be at the gym or on the trail!!!!

Hey Cheryl: gotta love the elliptical trainer! The great thing about resting now is the weather is so bad! Take the rest...get the bone scan...and in the long run (sorry) you will be on the bench for a shorter time? Or...go for a run...get the bone scan...and stay here for a longer bit. Oh sure the run will probably be OK, but whatever is going on in your leg might respond not so well to that "flash in the pan" run Those are the same goons that are in my head!!
