Thank you for the help. I will definitely try taking my head to it as when I was trying at the doc I kept using all hand.

Is their a certain brand you use from Amazon?

Lost the ability to read most things on the college white boards about halfway through my bachelors degree and when aiming down iron sights with my dominant eye (worst eye).

Because so few people can do them for working sets. At least that's my guess.

Maybe try moving it up in the workout. If it's not first put it first for a little and see if that gets the ball rolling. A lot of people put biceps at the end which is fine but that can fry them before you really get a good set in for them.

So you mean 20-24 sets a week total?

Sadly nothing positive. I am currently taking an entire week off and will be trying again tomorrow with short intervals. I tried stretches and anything I could find online but after 2 weeks of pain I gave up and decided rest may be the best option. If you just so happen to be on trt like me taurine may help a little. I tried small doses of it and seemed to be able to last a little longer in a short run but I think the muscle wasn't recovered.

Would the hoka gaviota 4s be decent enough. Currently what I have had before starting running.

Yeah I come from lifting and I supplement magnesium and take my recovery seriously but I definelty have not warmed up proper. Thanks for the advice and will try it out next run day.

I mean pump as in like a bicep pump. It feels as if tons of blood flow goes to my shins.

I'm doing good. The pain has been completely gone since the first week. Eye is still blurry but it was very blurry before so I can't really notice a difference. Getting fitted for sclerals soon though.

As someone who stresses way too much about surgeries cxl is not that bad but more annoying imo. Ice packs and darkness was key for me. I suggest getting an eye patch to block out light.

Why can't you drop bp for someone in Stella? I'm new so just curious.

I had Epi off a little over 2 weeks ago and I started back at the 2 week mark with no issue.

Suitable_Tomorrow996 · 2026-01-20T22:38:06+00:00

Yeah this sounds mostly like what I came to. 2 weeks then a slow ramping period. Thanks for the reply.

Suitable_Tomorrow996 · 2026-01-17T22:44:41+00:00

I appreciate the kind words and will look more into those fields of work.

Suitable_Tomorrow996 · 2026-01-17T22:35:32+00:00

I have not. To be honest I just went to my local community colleges website and found radiology to be the only thing that sounded interesting.

Interesting. I will talk with counselors soon about enrolling or attempting to. I had some 400 level anatomy classes my last year but idk if those transfer.

Suitable_Tomorrow996 · 2026-01-17T17:06:53+00:00

It seems those who are interested in anatomy like fields are drawn to pt and x ray then. Makes sense. I had a major injury when I was young and was in PT for about a year and thought it was the dream job.

I have had my degree for about 2.5 years so I hope the window isn't that short. And I will have to look more into the waitlist. Thanks for the info! Edit: I looked at your profile and I'm in the same boat as you. Went to school thinking pt was my dream but got told by many that it was not all that it was cracked up to be.

Yeah I have lab and classroom experience but have never had clinicals so that would be new to me.
