• Went back for my one month check-up this avo, expecting to be told that it's nearly there, and was told that it's made very little progress and that if it's not looking better in another month they'll operate. The x-ray was a joke... the bone is just floating around. I'm feeling pretty miffed (furious) about the advice I've received up until today, which was entirely at odds with what the bloke today said. Another month with this cunting sling hanging round my neck just to be told I need an op? Let me.

    ...So the (touring) holiday I've been looking forward to for 18 months goes up in smoke.

    Fuck, shit, cunt.

    Very sorry to hear this. If you are cool with getting an operation it may be worth requesting one asap (presumably on private healthcare), as at least then you will know exactly what your recovery time will be. If the bone is still floating around after 4 weeks it may not be able to bind at all.
