Thats freaky. :eek6:

A friend of my mothers had to have some pin put into his leg last year, recently some screw apparently came out, and was poking out under the skin about 10-15mm, made me want to puke, he got it sorted after being on the waiting list AGAIN for another 5 months or so. :(

When do they take the pins out? They didnt take my bandage off till like 1hour before they yanked the pins out. You get some funny old looks when you got 2 metal hooks sticking out your hand huh? :D

3 weeks later btw:

:)

The hook is in the bone to make sure it heals in the correct position :) Surgically implanted.

edit: its more of a bar really thats 2-3inches long and runs down the bone, the hook is just there so that they can be pulled up without having to open up the hand again.

LOL thats just what i said when the doc explained it to me, had the cast off fully on wednesday just got a bandage on hand now and the hook started poking out so had to cover it with plasters etc lol, they made me a little plastic cradle to cover wrist when i go to bed or out so it doesnt get banged which makes me feel better, i get the wire out in 2 weeks and have physio next week as i cant use some of my fingers but i do have my thumb, index and middle finger back so typing isnt such a pain and i can butter toast etc now yay!!

asked if i would be able to keep wire when they take it out but the nurse said she didnt think so, i may have to steal it, i wanna frame this sucker!

P.S cozak looking good hunny hope its feeling better now and not feeling so puny hehehe if we ever have a FH meet up i'll have an arm wrestle with ya :D

haha :D i asked the exact same thing, but they had to put it in this big yellow bin with sharp stuffs written on because it had my blood on or something. They gave me some clean ones though. You can eat corn on the cob and such with them. Your on for the arm wrestle as well :p

edit: my mam just got back from dublin got me a guiness bottle stress reliever thing its great for building up hand strength again ez, you should get one :)

Real men use grippers! and no pussy 100lb ones eithar, they use THIS!

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Heavy-Grips-H...181486220QQcategoryZ1521QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem#

p.s. if you can actually close that you get a certificate as only 2 people in the world ever have closed them, there part of the iron man training thing and someone will come out to watch you and award you your iron man certificate!. there pretty hard, thats step 4, id recommend starting on step 1 since even that is harder than step 4 from alot of companys. (Step one is 100lb)

lol was a bit silly, i was at my martial arts class and tried to do that thing where you punch the board and it snaps, except i hit the board which stayed in one piece and my hand snapped, would have been ok but i landed the punch wrong.

the doctor i saw said its actually called a karate break because thats how the majority of people with this injury have it, aparently if i'd broken the next bone along it would have been a boxers break, so there we go.

oh and dr told me not to do any martial arts for at least 3 months so thats next year when i can go back, tbh really bummed i loved that class :(

lol thats what those arse holes use to work out for their manly handshakes,

you know the ones, grin like a shark eye contact that would make an easter island carved head feel nausious and a handshake that says "I'm a real man, no one can accuse me of being a limp wrister, btw the number for a direct taxi to a&e service is on the back of my business card"

god bless the insecure.
