Default Don't try this at home... you may be sorry you axed.

Please consult a doc before trying this trick.

I was trying some one handed axing to remove a tulip tree stump when the axe became entangled in overhead wires. I couldn't hold onto it and it came down and split my ear. When the stitches went in at the ER my ankle improved greatly. It was my injuring the ankle which caused my symptoms to get a lot worse after having RSD for several years.

I got the stitches out today and the ankle is still much improved. It might not last and it hasn't helped my hand but it's still encouraging. If it doesn't come back in the ankle maybe the arthritis in the left knee and ankle will clear up.

You won't find the proceedure or the instrument in any medical books but, hey, whatever works.

My sister noted that I look more like a mummy all the time when leaving the ER. With my ear and hand all wrapped up and bandages elsewhere. Maybe by the time they dig up the real Imhotep in a few years I'll either be "cured" or completely "mummified".
