With experience gained through 22 major surgeries, and my latest major accident, I can attest that Scott is correctomundo!

Naw, it's all good!

Well I am back. My doctor checked me out. after the initial examination she said well it looks like you have a broke bone. So I went to get X-rayed. She came back in and said "I am really suprised, you dont have any visible breaks"
So I really found out nothing, she said that they would have the radiologist look at it, to see if thy missed anything. I am glad its not broken. But I wish It would stop hurting. The pain has gotten twice as bad since this morning.
If all is not well by this weekend I will be making another visit.

Thanks for all the concern

I hope it is better by friday, as I have another skiing trip planned

Glad to hear it is not broken.
Sounds like you may have torn some ligaments or tendons though for the pain to be that bad. Hopefully the doc gave you something for the pain and you start to feel better soon.
Glad you finally went to the Dr though. At least you are taking care of it. Now rest and let it heal.

michael_cb_125 · 01-15-2008, 03:24 PM

Thanks Lynn.
Well I dont think that I will be staining any tonight. my elbow is KILLING me.
But I hope I will be able to restain it tommorow. Then on thursday, I want polyp it. My Bulkheads are comming wed. So I hope to be plumbed by friday. And running by the end of the weekend.

Usually, I'm very good at picking up on the latest lingo, text messaging short cuts and ebonics, but I have to ask-what are you referring to when you say "...I want to polyp it."?

michael_cb_125 · 01-15-2008, 04:11 PM

Sorry, the Hydrocodine is kicking in. I meant Poly it.

XBwlr · 01-15-2008, 05:09 PM

Ain't percs fun!

Sorry about your arm Michael.

You didn't break it this time, so you're going to try again this Friday?

michael_cb_125 · 01-15-2008, 05:50 PM

Yepp!!!! I love Snow Blading.

Craig Manoukian · 01-15-2008, 05:54 PM

A deep bone bruise can take weeks to heal. I bruised my shin once and it was a six week recovery.

framerguy · 01-15-2008, 10:27 PM

Speaking from experience,... torn ligaments and sprains are WAY more painful than broken bones. ...why is that?

AQTCJAK · 01-15-2008, 10:34 PM

I agree rest so you can finish the tank you have waited long enough so stop screwing off & get to work

Commercial break for elbow rant!

Are you icing it, Michael, and keeping it elevated? At the very least you need to be taking an anti-inflammatory, unless you are sensitive to them.

You young people!

If you choose not to rest it and help it heal now, you'll pay for it later... trust me... old things that happened to me years ago are rearing their ugly heads now, with arthritis in the spine, ankle, , knee, neck... from repeated falls off horses that I basically just "got back on" and kept going! I'm too young at 51 to be dealing with this, so PLEASE take care of yourself now so you don't feel it later on.

If that terrible pain doesn't go away or start to fade soon (next day or two), get back to the doctor (an orthopedist, ideally) to make sure you haven't impinged a nerve or blood vessel. If feeling in your hand starts to go away (numbness or pins and needles sensation) get back there ASAP! because that is an emergency situation.

Okay, back to your wonderful-sounding 240!
