lol life is such a bitch, its funny how people heal differently because my break wasnt a real bad one but i have lost movement in my shoulder forever, here is a message to you all, wear your sling all the time!!!!! i never put mine on and the pone has set in a funny shape and now i cant raise it all the way up, oh well

yay 12 weeks later i'm finally fully healed. what a drag.

collar bones just have to stick out don't they, its like they are designed to be broken.


i have had 9 months of healing and i still have another 3 to go- i envy you!!

yeh i get ma next op in like a week to have the screws of out my hip- fun fun fun!

Here is a pic of mine, still hurting and I broke it last April!  Also when I touch the front of my shoulder I feel it at the back!! Apparently surgeon said when he tried to fix it couldnt get all the nerves back together so they are back to front!!

And then cracked right arm 3 months later in Morzine tee hee!!!!

Hurrah!
you can add me to the club, i did mine today on my bmx.
get in there!

this really sucks, but there we go; s**t happens.
and yeah, i got f**k all sleep last night. i was just lying on my back staring at the ceiling for hours.

anyway, went to hospital again today, and i cleary have a very unusuall sort of break because of the angle i fell on it. three doctors had never seen anything like it before and dont know what to do with it. seeing a specialist on friday, but they reckon the chances are theyll have to operate. the outside end of the bone is snapped off entirely, and that bit is snapped in two, but strangely it seems to be broken in completely the opposite way to what the doctors would expect. theyve added it to thier "interesting book". i dont know what it is with me and unusual injuries- they didnt know what to do with my ruptured kidney either.
looking at the x ray is strange- i would expect to be in agony, but i only took a couple of paracetemol last night before going to bed and now its really just uncomfortable, which is strange considering how asymetric my shoulders are now. indeed, my left nipple is about an inch lower  than the other!
