They inject you with a tracer, you wait an hour, then have the scan. The tracer gets picked up by active bone cells (like at a fracture site) and it lights up on the screen. Docs can tell if it is healed or still healing that way. That's what they did after it was diagnosed and it didn't heal right away. I second that. That's the exact same way mine was diagnosed. The first 2 times I went to the doc they didn't find anything. Walked on it for 6 months before I got the real diagnosis. |

It's great.  |

| Georgia | Subject: RE: Artemis's Group - FULL! I made it to the gym again today - yeah! three for three. I'm not sure what tomorrow will bring. I usually walk my dog for 45 minutes on weekday mornings but it is supposed to rain. If it rains, maybe I'll go to the gym before work. Tomorrow is our Christmas lunch (really small office) and I don't plan to go to the gym after that. Sorry I can't add to our geekiness. I have a cool job though. I work for an Egyptian tour operator so I travel to Egypt once or twice a year. I work part-time and have the holiday time and summers off

Member 18 | Subject: RE: Artemis's Group - FULL! Alright...been absent for a couple of days...both in the group chat and the gym. I'll be headed to the pool tomorrow to re-introduce my body to swimming. I REALLY enjoy the swimming part of the Tri and have been considering the possibility of joining a Master swimming club to help build up my speed and endurance...Anybody have any experience in doing both a club and tris?? |

Good luck with the swim tomorrow!! So, is your college part of your username? I'm curious which one you are at. If you don't want to say, you don't have to. Edited by Artemis 2009-12-17 7:27 PM |

Pro 4343 Olney, MD | Subject: RE: Artemis's Group - FULL! Hi! I used to be able to go on BT several times a day but Big Brother is definitely watching us now so I try to limit myself to a little time during my lunch. Oh well. Re: swim workouts: I usually swim twice a week but I rotate through three types of workouts: short and fast (sets under 400m), medium length at medium intensity (500-1000m), non-stop longer distance (1500 and up). I recently started doing 100m repeats which has taught me that if I increase my stroke turnover just a bit I can carry a lot more speed into the longer distances. |

| Member 64 | Subject: RE: Artemis's Group - FULL! TRIMAN413 - 2009-12-17 7:38 AM Well I have my MRI today. I wont know anything until next Tuesday though at my next appointment. It was weird yesterday, it was actually kind of bothering me during my swim. Cant quite figure that one out unless I was kicking too hard, which I dont think that I kick that hard. Good luck with the MRI - I'm sure it's hard to wait until next Tuesday. |

Science Nerd 28760 Redwood City, California | Subject: RE: Artemis's Group - FULL! Does anyone have any fun weekend plans? I'll be driving to Wisconsin. We are planning to leave early tomorrow and hoping to do the drive in one day. Looks like snow might interfere with our plans - either the leaving or being able to do it in one day. We'll get there eventually and we're pretty flexible about the time, so it will work out. |

Good luck with your drive - I'm hoping the majority of the snow that's supposed to hit the east coast will keep pushing into the Atlantic. My sister is supposed to fly in from Tokyo on Sunday, and it'd be nice if her flight wasn't terrible delayed. It'd be nice if I wasn't shoveling all Sunday evening too! - but if I'm snowed in, I can spend the day on the trainer |

I teach accounting and multi-media in high school - but maybe I can be one by association.... my daughter is studing sciences at university --- does that get me in?? lol! Accounting? Yeah, that should get you in! I flew my freak flag this morning by trying out my (first ever) one-piece tri suit at the pool. Compared to the times when I've used a wetsuit this is probably pretty tame. At first I was thinking that I wasn't feeling sleeker in the water but then I realized I was comparing the feel to my bathing suit when the right comparison is to a two-piece tri suit; definitely feels better in the water than a separate top and bottom. I pretty much blew myself out with 100 repeats. I've been doing them on 2:05 and staying comfortably under 2min/100 so I started today on 2:00; same sorts of splits but less/no rest. Hard! |

Sounds about right. Make sure you rinse out the wetsuit REALLY well with cold water after! |
