  • Hows everyone's healing going?

    I got xrayed on Friday, Doc said no signs of it healing yet which I didn't like the sound of but he seemed to think was ok. He was also happy with my range of movement and that I've been using the arm a good bit.

    No more sling, cleared to drive, but, told to wait till 6 weeks post break to start cycling again...Mother. Fucker.

    When he said "drive" he didn't specify car so took the motorbike out today and that was fine. Pretty sure I'll be back cycling quicker than 6 weeks.

  • I had one similar to yours, started physio at 3 weeks, back to full strength (rock climbing) by ~10, but definitely cycling by 6.

  • Amazing, good to hear you're confident enough to be out on two wheels, I couldn't imagine that with mine right now, can still feel the distinct separate bits of it pulling weirdly, actually getting more aches and pain twinges than before, guessing it's healing and setting weird

    3 weeks since that crash today and no clue on my surgery date yet, I keep calling my doctor's secretary and she just says wait for next people to call me (who don't have a contact number). The NHS website says that average wait times for orthopaedic surgery at Kings college is 17 weeks which is an unbelievably miserable number.

    I'm going to look into getting my GP to potentially refer me to another hospital with lesser wait times. I've briefly googled it and seen that it could be an option.
