Hey…

This time I’m not that well…

Some days before the Latin American Championship I had strong pain crises in my kidney. After many exams and different doctors we detected a serious infection! The bactery was in my throat but went down to my kidney causing the strong pain… Before I traveled I had some injections (one of penicillin is extremely PAINFUL) and I got better…

To avoid problems in the future I decided to have a surgery in my throat. I also had to do a correction surgery in my nose, so it was better to do both together. The surgery is quite simple, also the recovering. I was delaying the surgery for sometime after the World Championship, but was better to do it now…

I had it on the morning of 11th November and everything went really well! It’s a bit painful but the worse is the weird sensation of the hurt throat. For some days I wasn’t able to eat (only drink)…

I’m already inside my house for one week now! I still have to wait one week until I be able to ride. I feel really well, but after so many days without real food is quite dangerous to do any exercises. As I can’t go out, I’m using that time to update blogs, website, Flickr and sponsorship material…

For you, two pictures of me after the surgery! (bad quality images! My mom took it with her cellphone) :p:
