Cracked Ribs in Colorado!

Well I would like to thank you guys for checking my log and wondering what has happened to me.  Sorry I didn't get back here and let you guys know what was going on.  Things have just been crazy.  For those of you that followed along with me before, I went on my ski mountaineering trip as planned and crashed and cracked a few ribs the second day.  I thought it was just muscle soreness from skiing so I continued to climb and ski the rest of the trip.  Meanwhile my right side quit hurting but the left side kept getting worse.  Once we got back on Dallas soil I contacted my doctor and set up an appointment.  By this point I was having trouble breathing and I was coughing quite a bit.  Neeless to say everytime I coughed a jolt of pain would wrap completely around my left side and make me wince and wimper.  I was really getting worried.  Upon visiting the doctor I scheduled some X-Rays and sure enough I had several cracked ribs.  The doctor flipped when I told her I did it on Saturday and climbed the mountain and skied down on Sunday.  I was ordered to stop all activity in preperation for my up coming triathlons for fear of breaking the ribs and puncturing my lung.  I was instructed to take all these pain meds and not lift anything over 20lbs, etc, etc. for the next two weeks.  Two weeks later I went back so that she could check my progress.  Upon the second visit to the doctor and another X-Ray there showed to be some calcification where the fractures were.  I was ordered to limit all activity for the next month.  Well that time has come and I'm ready to get right back into training.  I may not be where I was hoping to be come my first Tri, but at least I will be at my first tri, against my doctor's orders mind you.  Anyway for those of you that have checked up on me I appreciate it.  At any rate I'm back.  I might need a few kicks in the rear end to keep me going so you guys help me out if you can.  I appreciate all you guys.
