meezers Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 OH has just come in from playing football complaining of a 'pulled hamstring'- he's not even limping but is apparently going to be out of action for a good while Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lavenders_Blue Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Oh yes, hypochondriac OH here too I've lost count of the number of weird and wonderful things he has diagnosed himself with over the years courtesy of Google and wikipedia. The most recent was crippling sciatica which miraculously disappeared when I told him to take his wallet out of his back pocket when sitting down. I have no idea if this has any medical basis (unlikely) but it did the trick and shut him up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lillybettybabs Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 I say to my other half to go to the doctors, he went as he had lots of joint ache ( he slouches on the sofa working most days) The doctor do a blood test for the arthritis's and found none. He googled it and found that in extreme cases blood tests don't pick it up. Guess who it the extreme case and nothing to do with poor posture and RSI.

The Dogmother Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 I have to say that my training partner at circuits is the last man to moan when he has an injury, but then he used to play rugby and rock climb. I swear he'd still run with his leg hanging off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lillybettybabs Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Yep most rugby players are like that, I've played with sprained wrists and nose bleeds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
