**Cut workout short to go to hospital (which turned out to be the worst experience in hospitality i have ever encountered...but got the green light to continue lifting ... something i already knew) **

Not a very productive back day, cannot remember the sets/reps since i was completely worried about the hospital. Hit some good reps on the wide grip lats, some good weight too... 3 plates. But all in all...not a good journal entry.

Quick Update on Elbow

Infection developed from razor blade cutr right below elbow over 6 months ago (never professionaly treated)
Left elbow has been hurting off and on for about 6 months (never associated it with previous infection)
Pain became unbearable
Initial Xray showed nothing upon inspection of technician
Orthopedic doctor, saw calcium buildup on the Xray (pissed off at previous technician)
Same doctor saw my scar from past infection and questioned when it had occured
3 days after seeing the doctor and having him poke my elbow, elbow becomes really tender
4 days after seeing the doctor i develop a new infection that appears on the surface of the elbow
Current: Waiting to see the doctor again. Praying for the best

It seemed like tennis elbow but now im not sure. I am only 20 and practice good form. I dont believe anything is torn, but i have yet to get an MRI (x-ray showed nothing as of structural damage)

The triceps were BLASTED even with just the 3 exercises. I am somewhat scared about ending up at 190lbs within 3 days, which is an increase of 6lbs. I feel a lot bigger, and only "bad" big today because of the drinking (i feel as if i cheated myself)
tomorrow is biceps (but im not sure because of my elbow . . . might to legs instead)
