    I'm Broken, Too

    I tripped and fell tonight, breaking my humerus at the joint of my right shoulder. Needless to say, with a half numb left hand and a broken right shoulder...I won't be playing much for a while. Take care and see you when I see you.

    No surgery and no cast, just a sling and pain meds. It is a fracture across the bottom of the ball that fits in the socket. Two weeks I see the doctor again.

    So i was feeling feverish last night with massive swelling in both legs and my right arm. I called for some advise. A short time later I got a call setting up an appointment for today. Being diabetic I am very alert for blood clots so the doctor had me do a blood test for them. Normal is around 500...mine was at 2000! I have an appointment at 6:30 this evening for an ultrasound and possibly a trip to ED for anti-coagulants. This really sucks!!!

    The ultrasound showed no sign of DVT, so that's great news. I am still having low grade fevers every day and my arm from elbow to hand is very swollen. Will see how it goes the next couple days.

    Update: My arm is out of the sling! Doctor wants me to start using it. I start physical therapy next week.

    I also have surgery scheduled for April 18 to try to repair the nerve damage in my left elbow. If it succeeds I just might get use of my left hand back!
