finally out of hospital
just got let out after being there all day, had to have the plate removed from my rist following breaking it 22 months ago when a ladder collapsed. Been in pain since because of tendons rubbing against plate. Any way make in all the way to the theartre just going to be knocked out when surgeon tells me they don’t have the screw driver to remove the plate and they have had to send to another hospital for it. So back to the ward for a further 2 hour wait.
Now hoping it will get bak to normal, its been a struggle applying vinyl for the past two years, problem is i will no longer have an excuse when i fu#k it up. 😀

There was a guy in B&Q this morning wearing a surgical mask & gown, he was wandering about the tool section. Now I know what he was doing in there :lol1: :lol1:
Hope you have a speedy recovery Kev, nothing worse than being in constant pain.

Just as well he didn’t apply the first rule of Engineering or DIY………..
1. Always use the correct tool for the job.
2. A hammer is the correct tool for any job.
3. Anything can be used as a hammer.

sorry to hear this mate, hope your fully on the mend quick. nothing worse when trying to run a business.
joking aside, did you not even have a cordless out in your van you could have let them borrow for 5 minutes? 😉 :lol1:

Kevin, hope you are quickly on the mend, cod liver oil pellets to help the healing, my dog swears by them, kind regards Graham

Many thanks guys
removed the dressings to have a look tonight & they have made more of a mess taking it out than they did putting it in. Pain is minimal now and i’m glad to say that when clenching my fist etc i can feel a great improvement now the tendons are not rubbing on the plate so i am hoping for a good result.Kev

Reminds me of my op for a bone graft and screw into my scaphoid, they have to cut your arm that long to pull the tendons out of the way……btw the bone for the graft wasn’t my own 😮
