following on... yesterday I had an MRI on my shoulder, today my doctor called an told me I had separated my acromioclavicular or AC joint in the top of my shoulder with swelling & tissue damage to a fairly sever extent but with no complications, apparently this is common in impact sports and takes time to heal. It will take 5-6 weeks to fully heal, but after a few weeks I can ride my road bike, if I fall during this time, it will be very bad.
This is a better situation than what was thought to be rotator cuff damage, which could have required surgery.
AC joint is shown in the upper right

A think there is a non-hammer ride coming up in 3 weeks, where I'll drop the hammer anyway to loose the gimp with one arm!
BALLS! Good job avoiding surgery, definitely best in the long run.
