k2bdeutmeyer Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 Well.....I broke my scaphoid bone (in my wrist). Pretty sure anyway. The x-ray was actually inconclusive, but they definitely saw something there on my x-ray & this bone (when broken) does not show up on x-ray right away typically. The break shows up later in the healing process. So, I have a bulky ER cast & when I follow up with ortho they will put a smaller cast on for 5-6 weeks. Thank you for all your advice!!

Suzanne in ABQ Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 I'm sorry you hurt your arm. It's amazing how fast that happens, huh? I hope you heal fast. Is it your "writing arm"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
