Muenkel 0 #1 July 8, 2003 Just spoke with my doc about the congestion in my ear canals. It's getting worse and my hearing is also getting worse. I have an appt. to see him tomorrow. He told me in the meantime, under no circumstances am I do skydive. Damn, I was so looking forward to putting my new found tunnel skills to use this weekend. I'm sad.

dkpbxman 0 #3 July 8, 2003 That sucks about your medical problems but listen to the doctor. A friend of mine once had his ear rupture while he was under canopy. He said it was the most intense pain he'd ever felt in his life! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skydiverbrian 0 #7 July 8, 2003 Quoteunder no circumstances am I do skydive You know, you really are a drama queen! Go and take your medicine, rest up and get better. Then get in the sky and knock out the last couple AFF levels you have to finish. Then come back to FL and let's jump. In a world full of people, only some want to fly... isn't that crazy! --Seal Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Push 0 #8 July 8, 2003 It really sucks to be grounded, but it's better than the alternative. I've heard stories of ear raptures and it's not something I would wish on anyone. You'll go back up in a couple of days. Work on some muscle memory exercises for now -- Toggle Whippin' Yahoo Skydiving is easy. All you have to do is relax while plummetting at 120 mph from 10,000' with nothing but some nylon and webbing to save you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Muenkel 0 #10 July 8, 2003 I know it is a minor setback. I won't see the doc until tomorrow, so no antibiotics until then. I just don't see them clearing the infection by this weekend and I so wanted to go kick ass on my D-1. But, good things come to those who wait. You know what, Jessicakes, I fucking feel it also!!!!

Muenkel 0 #15 July 8, 2003 QuoteChris, watch your video's....you DID get video, right? Actually I have video for the first 10 minute session, which I didn't do so great. I didn't get video for the second session, which was enormously better. But you're right, the video is a great training tool and I certainly have some homework I can do.
