Major owage. That looks awful. Hopes and prayers for a speedy and complete recovery. H&K-Guy | |||

At the end of every therapy session, they would hook up a tends device for pain. It actually worked pretty good. My therapist got my doctor to write a prescription for a portable tends device and my insurance picked up most of the tab. Mine is a Empi Select. It's small, about 4 inches by 3 inches and about an inch and a half thick with a belt clip. It runs off of 2 AA batteries. It has several modes and it works great when my arm is aching. I didn't get mine until about 4 months after I broke my humerus. I wished I'd gotten it sooner. If you don't have one, I'd recommend it. ___________________________ "I Get It Now" Beth Greene | |||

That was very nice of the surgeon to work around your tattoo. | |||

A good friend of mine had that same injury trying to hop a fence at a youth soccer game he was officiating , he had a good result. Almost the same exact incision too. Heal fast! | |||

13 must be the lucky number. A friend of mine took a fall back in December and broke her tibia right at the top. She has three plates and a total of 13 screws in her leg now. Surgery scars on both sides of her knee. PT was not pleasant for her, but she's walking almost normally now and the doctor says in a few more months she'll be able to feel her foot again (the main nerve down her leg got damaged). Here's hoping for a quick recover for you. | |||

The physical terrorist is having a ball. But it is healing and improving, albeit more slowly than I'd like. I'm getting a little more range of motion and very slightly more strength each week. Thanks  Sig P226 .40 S&W Sig SP2022 9mm RIA 1911 Gov't .45 ...and more | |||

How are you doing now? Recovery was a lot longer than I thought. My range of motion hit a plateau where I could only raise it to about 70 degrees. I was there for a long time then it seemed to improve drastically at once. Now I have most of my range of motion back. Don't get discouraged if you plateau out. Keep working at it. I had to go to torture 3 times a week for about 6 months. Luckily my copay was only 12 bucks a visit, but it did add up. Money well spent though. Of they assign you stuff to do at home, do it. ___________________________ "I Get It Now" Beth Greene | |||

Boy, when they decide to screw something together, they don't mess around do they--they go to the big box display at Home Depot. Heal up quickly and completely _______________________________________________________ despite them | |||

Took this Tuesday:  I am improving, day by day. I need the last couple degrees to get it straight and a degree or two more to get it fully bent. They're having to work on my shoulder, elbow and wrist, so it's taking longer than I'd like (isn't that always the case?), but I'm improving enough to make them happy. I see them three times a week still. I see the doc Sep 5 and he'll decide whether that stays or I do to 2x per week. Sig P226 .40 S&W Sig SP2022 9mm RIA 1911 Gov't .45 ...and more | |||
