Hi All
I am very discouraged right now as last week , 1 month before I start my Camino I injured my right hip , Si joint area. I have walked over 1000 KM since April getting ready and was doing well. However last week I went on a bike ride with a few steep hills. I am 64 years old and as such AI do not heal as well as before, My Physiotherapist says that it should settle down as does my message therapist and that I have a good chance to be able to still give it a go. My Dr is not aware of it yet as he is on vacation. I am guessing this is part of the Camino experience having injuries both in training and during, My problem is I suffer from Anxiety which makes it worse of course. As I type this I have convinced myself that I cannot do it as the pain is too much. I pray that I can be at Peace regardless of what happens. My Camino has been planned and trained for now since May of 2016 so I have out a lot of my heart and soul into getting ready, I just hope that I can recover in time. Any words of wisdom,
