Oh Helen I am so sorry to hear this. Dang how do you still have energy to make fun of your situation. I am glad that you went to the doctor, and Thank God that you did not fall on the hips...
Get the bone scan and take care of yourself as you can.
Feel better soon,
Love

Hi Helen,
I can't even imagine your pain! Oh I hope you are feeling better today. I am so sad to hear of your experience. We think things are bad as they are then...wham...another reminder of our fragility. I do hope that you are not in too much more pain. What a drag!

Sending gentle hugs and much love,
Victoria

I am allergic to the fibre glass cast so had to have it changed to the heavy plaster one!!! on anti histamines to help with the allergy rash and topical ointment. Honestly cannot even break a bone without problems!!!

D'oh!

hi Helen,

I guess you found out the hard way you were allergic!! Yikes So sorry. It must be so heavy compared to the other one....and you lost your purple no doubt!!

I hope the rash heals quickly and you feel better soon!!

love and hugs,
Victoria

Hi All.

Oh yes Victoria it is heavy. Fortunately have some of the soft collar and cuff they use in UK instead of a sling to carry it around. The sling just cut into my neck making things worse!!

Rash all better. 2-3 weeks to go til see hand cons and get re X ray. My thumb hurts though. As there is some movement in cast when try to do things with fingers thumb automatically trys to help and then it presses down against. side of cast and then it is OUCH time.


Aint life grand!!

Take care all of you

Hx from a very cold UK!!
