    Years ago, when I was in the military overseas I had my right hand almost severed off by flying metal, it cut several tendons and after having it sewn back together (which also has left a huge scare to this day and still bothers me) it took me a good six months to heal. I remember the doc's gave me a rubber ball to squeeze to help build up my strength.

    So do what they tell ya and don't get on the bike to early.

    yeah, I got the tendons too...along with everything else!! It really hits home when you see that artery spraying blood, you know your in the deep sh*t.I was out of work for 4 1/2 months (thanks to the company for holding my job and paying 100% of my pay) But I had a great doctor and heal pretty quick, so all's fine now.
