Oh yeah I totally agree, the funny thing was that when I saw the scan was fine the pain totally went away.

So my point was pain was just coming from the state of mind.

But as I mentioned I have broken both my collar bones, those scans DON'T look good. The bones are all out of place and the doctors told me it wasn't "normal" for my bones to look like that and I would experience chronic pain in my arms and shoulders and I won't be able to go to the gym or do anything that would cause stress to my collar bones.

They also told me I would never play football again.

Today my arms are perfectly fine, I have played two seasons of football with no injury at all I have been to the gym countless amounts of times and as I said in my first post I just completed and intense wieghts program and my back was fine and my arms were totally fine.

However if I was to get a scan today it would look like I was suffering from serious pain, as I said it's all out of place and just doesn't look pretty and certainly not normal.

But in my mind it is completely normal. It's such a solid fact that I don't even think about it.

You can't tell from the outside they have been broken.

The doctors perscribed me strong pain killers but I never used them because I believed that my arms were fine.

If you don't already know when you break your collar bone you can't plaster it because of the akward positioning, so it's extremely painful because any slight movement can cause pain. You just have your arm in a sling and I was lucky enough to brake both of them

My whole point is stop accepting there is a problem, it's your body and you control it.

If you have seen the secret just look at that guy, I think his name was mike goodman? The guy who was in a plane crash and smashed his whole body up, couldn't walk, couldn't talk. But now he is fine.

The more you THINK you have a problem the more you WILL have a problem.

Cheers,
Tristan
