Crashed on Tuesday - 6 broken ribs and scrapes

[ColinJ]

When I had my chest problems, I had several weeks of sporadic feverish coughing before the clots finally knocked me out. The coughing got so bad that I developed terrible pain in the back of my rib cage. My GP reckoned that the coughing fits might have cracked a rib. It sounded unlikely to me but I've just been reading about cracked ribs and that CAN be one of the causes. That was bad enough - I definitely wouldn't fancy 6 of them at once!

I wish you a full but no-so-quick recovery. You need to slow down a smidgen.

All the best, DCL.

GWS - I've broken one rib and that hurt like heck, so I can only imagine what 6 of them feels like!

My golden rule, try and keep the wheels on the ground at all times GWS.

A good start, but I have managed to crash many times without my wheels leaving the ground until very late in the crash, if at all!
