Shit news, dude. Hope it works out for you. Gutting about the tour (similar situation re: the world polo champs in Berlin next month). I'm really not thrilled with the "wait and see" attitude towards collarbones, but I'm sure they know what's best in the grand scheme of things.
I'm in next week for my "four week" (more like 6?) check up. I think I'm in a better position than you, though. I do believe it's started to fuse (I even rode my bike earlier this week, albeit, in a sit-up-and-beg position). However, I'm not really happy with the position it's fusing. There is a noticeable drop (rather than bump), which seems strange (usually, it seems, you get a bump where the two bits fuse, but the bone is overall, in-line as it would be were it not broken. This drops, and then continues towards my shoulder about 2cms further back), and my shoulder is still quite droopy (neither were issues when I broke it the first time).
Here's hoping it's healing fine, though.
