I'm sorry to hear about your arm... what terrible timing.
One thing at a time, get the arm sorted... and then deal with what you can and can't do with the leg.
I agree with Donna to go to PT asap.
tell them what has been going on since you saw the doc. if it is too inflamed to do PT they will know how to advise you on what to do next.
i am afraid that if you keep sitting on it (not literally) not only will it not improve, but could get worse.
we wouldn't want that!
other than that, it is nice to hear that Jackie is doing so well and wowww, good work on his communication boards!!!
you've done tons!
