"Now how to answer your question? The feet and legs are fully healed and I returned to work on the 19th December and after a year off the shop-floor, so to speak (on administrative duties prior to the GE from the broken arm), I was just getting into the swing of things. However, whilst you sent me this PM this morning, I was sitting in our A&E with my Ward Manager, having just tripped face first on two computer wires dangling on the floor hidden behind the long bedside curtains, whilst on ward rounds with one of our Consultants and his team. To say this was deja vu would be a definite understatement! All of the doctors helped me up after examining that the blood on the floor from my teeth was not from a head injury, so mortifying but very kind of them all. It looked to all intent and purposes that I may have dislocated my right shoulder but after x-raying it they discovered the head of the Humerus (the ball of the ball and socket) was fractured plus a floating piece of bone. To add insult to injury I have to wait 10 days before they can rule out a fractured Scaphoid bone in my left wrist. Unfortunately they cannot put a cast on the shoulder site only a collar and cuff support, I'll know on Wednesday whether the Orthopaedic Consultant thinks I need an operation to pin the fractures.
Presently I am in a total sense of disbelief that an accident like this has happened again, my annus horribilis is still ongoing.
I'm sure by the time that you have read this, you will be regretting having ever asked the question.
I think I may just pop a post on the forum, as it would take forever to send individual PM's to all of my friends on here, as I'm currently posting with one finger. "
So to all the forum chums, duly posted.
