I have yet to get an appt. with my ortho so far but I am going to give the pool a shot tonight. My shoulder is feeling pretty darn good and the popping is much more rare. I should add that the popping is not painful and seems to be pretty close to the level of popping that I experienced before the injury. I am excited and nervous at the same time. I am going to take it easy and not try to replicate my pre-injury times or endurance. I think my goal will be to swim whatever is comfortable, not to exceed 400 yards. If I still feel good for the next few days I will up the ante a bit. Anybody have any input? Gull80? You seem to be pretty enlightened about injured swimmers. Thanks.

(You would remember!...they use a BIG needle to put the dye in and it isn't without "discomfort!"):rolleyes: My MRI was needle free.
