Got to know when to fold em....
I've been having a series of issues- heart, shoulder, neck, back. My MD even asked me (about surfing), "Do you want to continue this activity?"
Activity? I'm sure you'll all understand when I say it's kind of my life. No way I'm going to give it up without a fight. But skateboarding? I used to just flow some turns at the gently sloped parking lot at my local beach break. It's been a while since I did even that. Probably not worth the risk any more...
Sorry to hear about health issues. Hope you're able to manage and still get in the water.
