Ouch. Broken funny bone. Make sure they use some good screws...none of that crappy stuff they sell at home depot. Stay away from the pain pills as much as you can and treat rehab seriously when the time comes.
Yeah, that figures. You no sooner retire than you start falling apart. Heal fast, brother. Keep in good spirits (non-alcohol type) and stay away from the Ellen show!
Sorry to hear about that. The worst that has happen to me was my colonoscopy I think I was proposing to the Dr. Gary
Sorry to hear Rotti, this morning our driveway was all ice, thank god it snowed. I did put my ice fishing spikes on my boots for the first time this year after reading this.
The dammmmmmmmed ice!!!! Hope you're on plenty good/lots of pain meds rottiman . Sorry for the hassle of all of this. Get some rest, and let other folks drive for a while.
So sorry. On the bright side, you will certainly end up with a cool scar! Hang in there, will be praying for you.
Sorry for the bad news Rotti. It looks like the 2 minutes Murphy was not with me he came to see you. Hope you have a speedy recovery
THANKS SO MUCH FOLKS. HAD SURGERY LAST NIGHT. BIG HANDFUL OF SS HARDWARE. WILL BE GOING HOME THIS EVENING
thanks folks surgery last night. Got a handfull of ss hdwe. Should be going home tonight. Will be back on tomorrow as working off of phone here is a PITA. All have a safe day.
Been there done that. Fell off the top of a triaxle dump 19 years ago and got hardware in my elbow also. Lost about 30 degrees of motion. Real cold makes it ache and occasionally a radical weather change coming will make you want to have it amputated. Other than that no big deal. Get well soon. Mind the Dr orders. I over did it too soon and ended up breaking my arm just above the elbow a week after I got my half cast off !!!
Great news, but quit yellin' at us. You shoulda' axed for some unobtanium screws and brackets and such. I hear it's rotti-proof.
Rottiman, glad to hear surgery went well, keep up on the pain meds, and take the Dr.s word on recovery time, don't rush it. Here's hoping for a full recovery.... oh and don't forget to ask the doc where he put the grease zerks for that bionic elbow ya got now.
