Ahhh well that all sounds a bit messy! What crap luck though, sorry to hear it.
The frustration was the worst part for me too. I think I got off lucky as I found the pain very manageable, but I'm sure I wore my friends'/family's patience pretty thin as I was such a grumpy little shit for the first month.
Been taking the sling off more and more frequently for the last week or so and was only really feeling muscular pain but that's now subsiding. Hoping for good news from the doc on Thursday as I'm flying to Japan on Sunday :/

the x-rays showed new bone growth in the space where the plate had lifted, and seeing as I seem to be healing well and movement returning, the surgeon thinks that leaving the plate in there till the end of the month may help the healing process more than operating now to re-install
I just want to get back to work AND be able to ride again
