Torn Bicep Tendon

Thanks all for the words of encouragement, it means a lot.
I have a MRI on Friday and I hope that the doc's office can get me in early next week. From what I read you have a 2-3 week window to repair it. After that the tendon will be to short to reattach.
The doc told me to start getting the younger guys to do the lifting as my tendons don't
stretch like a 30 year old. I guess I have to face it, I'm not getting any younger.
I can't lift anything over my head. I can barely lift the weight of my arm up, it's really painful.
Wow, a lot of you guys have it worse than me, I feel for ya.
