PICTURE of YOURSELF THREAD

Ouch indeed, how has sleeping on those staples been? You'd think they'd have done a nice subcuticular for your comfort. They look ready to be removed. How do you feel?


Thanks for asking. :-)

Staples came out yesterday. incisuon healing faster than expected however I did not know the doctor had to sever a pinched nerve he saw when he was inside and it will slowly grow back. So movement in a few directions Is much harder than others.

But it is obviously repaired and healing.

That's good, now slow and steady, do not push yourself but don't baby yourself either. Just keep gently moving.
 
What the heck did you do?

50lb tumor?
Close call with a wood chipper?
Got a story about a samurai's daughter?


The rear quick release failed on my mountain bike. The wheel slipped and dropped me real hard to the ground.

It was a failed part or an incompetent bike shop owner who installed the wheel last.

I ride a lot. Even let my bike go in crashes and watched it bounce down hills and never had a wheel loosen.

I have a decent trial lawyer investigating.

Ok. I made all that up. Now the samurai I know had a daughter..........

Holy shit!
I used to ride dirt bikes and have never seen anything like that!

Then again, I wore all the gear so crashing usually wasn't a big deal...

I was showing my brother in laws kid to ride without training wheels. It was right out front of my house.

I landed square on my shoulder. I tucked my arm and hand in instinctively. It shattered the scapula. It now has 3 plates. Even a nerve was pinched and destroyed. I’m bumming for months more looks like.

I posted these pics elsewhere but this is a pic thread and these are me so.....

Broken, compressed, split and overlapped.

Thanks for the post. Guess we heal and move on.

I am already taking a lower dose and less often. Trying to transfer to just Tylenol. But I sure still need the oxy for pain.

I don’t like the effects of opioids and have tried heroin a few times long ago with no problem.

I did like coke way too much but stopped that cold turkey over 20 years ago.

Warning is appreciated. :-)
