Clavicle Error - Broken Collarbone

Thanks for the kind words. you lot are blimmin' great.

Question: They haven't put the bone in place and back together yet, should they have? Will the bone naturally try to align?

Skully et al, I'll be dropping the painkillers ASAP for all the reasons you and others have stated. I took some to help me get out of bed this morning and I'll see how it goes.

No, the bone should be left to align itself (normally) - thats what the sling does.

Agree re dropping painkillers but I took them for a bit, guess I must be a softy but I don't care - it huuuurt! ;-)
