So, I was out playing Ultimate Frisbee this evening. I felt it pop when I threw a long backhand. It now hurts to lift my arm to the front. I am icing it 20 on and 20 off and took some Aleve. I guess I'll just have to wait until tomorrow to see how it feels, but I'm pretty sure it's injured. I have been training for Zones for 6 months now and I am not sure of how to feel. I'm angry with myself for going out to play Ultimate, I'm scared that I'm not going to be able to swim at Zones.

I will try to get an appointment with a shoulder guy on short notice. I'm hoping that some of you have some advice. I read the shoulder poll, so I know there are some of you with firsthand knowledge.
So, as the day wears on, my shoulder hurts a little less. I can now lift it to the front with little discomfort. I'm hesitant to use any resistance until I hear with the orthopedist has to say.
I try to be open minded about medicine in general. I think there are some physicians that have too high a patient load and don't listen to their patients. I also think there are some hokey things going on in alternative medicine clinics. I think a little skepticism is healthy when visiting both conventional and alternative medical practitioners.
Anyway, thanks everyone for the advice. I hope that I just sprained my shoulder or pulled a muscle slightly. We'll see how it feels over the next few days.
