Broke My Arm

I been gone lately. I dunno how long, but i was homeless till a family memer took me in, then i got my place with some roommates and i was told i was going to be hired for a good paying job, i just needed to take in the ss card and attend orientation....

Then 9/11 came. Such a good day even though i spent some time remembering horrible things and watching footage. I went to work, came home and i broke my arm.

Humerus Mid-Shaft Fracture.

it looks like this...but this isnt my arm.



it's been 2wks now, n i finally dont get much pain and i found out i don't need surgery, i just have to wait it out in a brace n sling.

They take like 4-8 wks to heal.

I broke it by arm wrestling. I started to lose at first at a 45 degree angle, apparently he turned my bone one way, n then we didnt really meet at a 90 degree angle. i started to push way past it and not meeting at that 90 degree angle didnt let my bone rest in place. As i was about a 45 degree angle i pushed my hardest and the torque and all that snapped it in half.

The ppl watching it described the sound like a broom hitting a tile floor. n my arm completely, went the way he was pushing, even though he didnt push it once he heard the snap.

My life right now is ps3, movies, texting n doctor visits.

My friend is begging me to look for "sympathy pussy" "best pussy on the market." lol

anyway,

It really sux not being able to go out much or do much. i never broke a bone before. =/

Not much has changed here. lol but glad to see it still up.

Sorry to hear Shadows. Make sure you rest it and take care if it. I fractured a metacarpal almost 3 months ago and didn't let it heal all the way and it STILL hurts :(

It is/was.

For the first 2 weeks, trying to sleep was a bitch.

if i sit up i cudnt sleep, or my neck wud be fucked, n if i laid down my bone would push up against my arm, making it impossible to be comfortable, even with 2 vicodins.

I was going to be sympathetic but then saw you included "texting" as an activity. That's almost as bad as that kid on Facebook who I put on hide after he updated his status saying he needed new texting buddies. That's a THING? An ACTIVITY? SOMEONE PULL THE PLUG ON ME.

All truth aside I just posted up there, that does suck man. In June after 7th grade, a few days after school ended, I broke my arm pretty badly. I had that long cast that goes past your elbow for 2 months. It completely ruined my summer and changed my personality for the worst. I was never the same joy-loving, care-free person again. It basically ruined my adrenaline-loving activities for life.

Arm wrestling lol. That's kind of funny. I just got over a fractured ankle, recovering sucks. I broke my 5th metacarpal and never let it heal like keco and all I have to say is be patient, let it heal and get some strength before you try to use it a lot.

Guess which one is Shadows (hint: It ain't Stallone)



On a serious note, happy to have to back man - was wondering where you ran off to.

PS: The movie is called 'Over The Top' ... movie about arm wrestling.

I broke my arm 3 times between the ages of 15 and 18. I don't behave the same way any longer. I am more careful when playing sports now.

with my broken arm, that's an activity. lol. but i feel u on that, it's sooooo annoying when ppl say that.

i seriously hope that doesnt happen to me. i'm quiet and reserved but some days im my self. just 4 weeks left, but with a broken arm, that feels like 5 months. =/

lol, i was actually gon lie and said i got shot on fb to fuck with ppl, but since i've been shot at b4, i didn't want ppl to believe it. n thanks, i will be careful not to rush anything. its too bad that my job is physical n requires us to push minimum 500 lbs. i'll just have to do it with one arm, like i wud sometimes anyway.

We learned about this in anatomy. Buck up, you pussy. At least it didn't sever your radial nerve.
my fingers were very numb for a week. he said he didnt wanna do surgery if we didnt have to cuz if he pinched the nerve by accident, i wud be like that for life.

It's far enough up your arm that if he hits the nerve hard enough, it will paralyze everything from there on down. I know you work out, and so you'll have a fucked up arm that atrophies over time due to paralysis and one that's normal because it gets used. Palpate it often to make sure it's healing right, otherwise if it heals crooked, they'll go in, break your bone again and hope it heals straight the next time around.

Sorry, I'm in pretend-doctor mode after seeing patients here. Got enough money coming in, I got another Bimmer on lease. I knew you'd like to hear that. ;)

Luckily I've never broken my arm before. But i've broke my fingers on my dominant hand, made jacking off terribly difficult. Have you had a similar problem?
