Currently sat in hospital awaiting removal of metal work from my elbow. August last year some little sod took me out when playing football and I landed heavily on my elbow, the result

One operation later, some complications and it now looks like this

I've been struggling to rotate my wrist as part of the plate and screws grind against the bone so I'm currently sat in hospital awaiting the removal in the hope I can gain some more movement. Thankfully I can nearly straighten my arm which is a miracle because for months I could hardly move it without it hurting.

Flipping Norah! That looks nasty.

Sorry to hear mate put your feet up and relax,,, your car will still be there when your better,, your health more important!!!

More free time to watch the tv and car racing!!!

Back at work Monday, 22 month old boy and 11 week girl says no to relaxing lol

As an Orthopaedic surgeon, my professional opinion is.............the same as catzi!. Bad injury, put back together well.

good luck

Hope it all goes Ok

make sure you get the metalwork, great souvenier or a couple of quid down the scrappy !!

Ouch! Best of luck for a full recovery :thumbup:

Totally mate, the man is a genius and makes me happy after thinking I'd messed up my arm for good

Stu, I'll stick with the x rays as I'm sure the metal will be a mess. Cheers Wardy
