So I head out to tackle a 4 miler today, pop on Miles Davis: Birth of the Blues, set my Forerunner, etc.. as I take my first step, I collapse in pain. This might be a little graphic, so feel free to stop reading now....

... okay so the pain is all in my groin, and I immediately call my dad (a doc) who calls his urologist who in turn calls me. Tells me to go to the ER asap as it could be a twisted testicle, which would require immediate surgery.

4 hours, tons of poking/proding, an ultrasound, and a shot of antibiotics later, I'm home. I have a cyst that formed as the result of the fucking H1N1 I had last week. How shitty is that? All in all, I'm so relieved that's all it is.

HAHA! I lucked out, just in my butt. Stings pretty good, but they cut it with lidocaine so it takes the edge off.

hmmm

must've used a pretty long needle if you got a cyst in your groin
:wink:

Don't they use the thing in your shoe to not start your official time until you cross the starting line?
