> Maxie how long will the recovery period be? And are they going to have to give you physical theraphy? Does your wrist still hurt? sorry Maxie. Love Jan
Thanks for asking ... that's very sweet. Well three bones in my wrist will be rebroken and pins put in. I will then spend 8 weeks in cast. Someone said the pins would then be removed, while others said they won't. I have to ask my ortho. Then extensive physio.
My wrist is KILLING ME. I am in more pain than when I actually broke the bone. I have a bone that protrudes on one side of wrist (not outside the skin - lol). I have to ice it for the better part of the day because it is very swollen. Yup, that last ortho didn't know what he was doing.
I have been going to physio twice a week to get as much mobility back as possible. But I am in such pain it's really hard. I see my ortho on the 4th of july.
