I have....

I have never tried it (I am a neckie though) but then again I still have so many problems with my arm and shoulder that I don't think that I could.....besides I am allergic to excercise in any form... Big Grin

I am steering clear of rowing

Hi

I haven't rowed after surgery, but my back problems started because of rowing. I prolapsed a disc after "catching a crab" rowing 4 years ago. I wouldn't go near a rowing boat again, so good luck!

I am however, going to try Kayaking tomorrow...fingers crossed that everything goes ok! Smile

Best Wishes

Anna
