Give some news and explain the situation I find myself at the moment it is important to me. For once I choose to talk about my private life rather than keeping it to myself.<\/p>\n<p>I had 9 days between my \u00a0return \u00a0from Donington and my departure for Most. Between rehabilitation, training and medical appointments I could not have done more than what we did with my doctor, physiotherapist and Randy.<\/p>\n<p>I went to Most with much more strength and mobility in my shoulder. After Friday and Saturday I was happy to feel physically strong again despite the demanding track (8 changes of direction per lap),but I could not ride as I wanted. I obviously had discomfort in my collarbone due to the plate and the 10 screws in the bone but no pain.<\/p>\n<p>When I woke up on Sunday, I immediately noticed that something was wrong in my back, 9 days necessarily not being enough to rebuild me 100% muscularly after the operation, I really compensated with the left side hoping that\u2019s enough for the 3 days of racing.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, during Race 2, my back no longer worked, by dint of pulling on it I found myself paralyzed on the right side, from back to the shoulder \u00a0up to the hand. It is for all these reasons I could not finish\u00a0 \u00a0the race, having to retire 5 laps before the end.<\/p>\n<p>Back in France, Monday morning at 9am. I was in consultation with doctor, physiotherapist and specialist to finally get diagnosed an intercostal neuralgia, damaged tendons and crushed axillary nerve due to a dislocation of the shoulder caused also by the crash in Italy. I now better understand the pain i have been feeling for the last two months. Currently I still have no feeling in my shoulder since the operation, but I keep going with my rehabilitation every day to gain muscle and ensure that the nerves and tendons consolidate as quickly as possible.<\/p>\n<p>I feel like I will never have a normal year to fully \u00a0show myself. Injuries are part of this sport, many go through it and I Know it could be worse! But having the feeling of never being able to assert myself 100% \u00a0becomes very complicated.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the injury I\u2019m riding much faster than in 2021 but I can\u2019t keep this pace on 35-37 minutes in my physical condition at the moment.<\/p>\n<p>I think I am someone who can achieve good results in the world stage, speaking of \u00a0my personal commitment to this sport on a daily basis. Although I have realized that over the years it has never been without problems, season after season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Not too keen on posting anything about the last race in the Czech Republic, but I had \u00a0to do it sooner or later.
