Exactly my thoughts too, CCR. Proteinboy: be sure to take your Protein as you heal 
Have some patience, and the LAT WILL REWARD YOU! Your reward is time and patience. It needs rest if its hurt, dont fret, dont let yourself get depressed, instead depress the depression. With that said, remember what you did the caused the injury, and take it as a learning experience.
Like with life and other things that WOUNDS us, healing and care, can provide an ABUDANCE (MS) of growth when completed correctly. More importantly, if its necessary to lay off from training that part DO IT, let it rest, and WILL come back 10 times better and provide an reward of satisfaction no one can take from you PERSONALY!
Think of it this way young man, as you know the muscle grows outside the gym during rest (after the stimulous application), too MUCH stimulous was applied in this case or improper form, and as such will need more rest to heal, and when it does, it will come back with a vengeance--with proper nutrition and diet. More is not always better (i have to tell me that sometimes too).
The BEST thing you could do for YOU is keep the DIET on the UP and UP, cause I can see how hurting the lat effects other lifts (of course). NOW ROCK ON KEEP THE MENTAL FRAME OF MIND HEALTHY AND ATTACK........the correct way!
I did squats one time (at the beginning), and my Torso, butt, and legs were so sore, I could barely fricken move, it effected all things. BUt, I knew what the soreness INDICATES, and I had to lay off for two weeks. I will NEVER get my torso that sore again, man, if you get the torso really sore, one finds out how much it works, I will never forget that, and as such learned and adapted. You will too in your case.
