Shoulder dislocation

Has anyone actually dislocated their shoulder while swimming? I swam all through high school, took 6 years off tried bodybuilding then went to powerlifting. After several disk injuries, I decided to quit, and get back into swimming to save my aching body/joints. After about 6 weeks of training I competed in my first Masters meet. The first two events were awesome 50m back then 50m fly. I actually broke the state records in both. The third event 100m I.M. While sweeping outward in the butterfly, my shoulder came completely out of the socket for a split second, then popped back in. I could actually hear things popping and tearing. It has been 6 weeks, and it still hasn't completely healed. All I've been able to do is kick workouts without a kickboard.Does anyone else have a similar experience?

    I just wanted to thank everyone for the feedback. I am seeing a good chiropractor, and it is recovering- slowly but shurly. My range of motion is coming back. However, you never heal as quick as you would like. I'm sure everyone will agree with that.
