Guest guest Posted December 5, 2010 Report Share Posted December 5, 2010 Thanks MSers Well it's fractured not surprised though. Clavicle is broken but not displaced and the other bone Scapula (?) has a hairline break as well. The ortho specialist put Me in one of those figure 8 things mainly as support but I can't get if off!! No showers until it comes off which will be tomorrow when I showup at my family doctor and tell her Take It Off like Now please??? Not much pain unless I over do it and it reminds me. Just took a tylenol with codeine so it will feel better soon. My daughter just turned 22 so she knows every thing..teehee:) But she's a college student almost 3 hours away.

I'm going to see my doctor. I fell off my bed (no comments please) I seriously think I fractured my *right clavicle/collar bone* over the weekend it's not getting better and want to make sure it's aligned before it has a chance to heal. My luck has been crappy lately...sigh* I'm afraid if it sets wrong I'll have more crap....S**** my daughter told me over the phone " Please Mom be careful, with your luck you can break more bones.

Guest guest Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 all I can say is ... when we do it we do it God, grant me the strength of eagles wings, the faith and courage to fly to new heights, and the wisdom to rely on his spirit to carry me there.

Guest guest Posted December 8, 2010 Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 Teri, If you're in that figure either thing that has the padding in the armpits (oh, those are AWFUL in the summer.. know this from experience).. The contraption will loosen eventually.. and eventually you'll figure out how to get it off so that you can shower.. But please, please, please don't do anything with the arm on the side of the fracture without the supporting device.. My left one was broken back in 1975.. and that's what they used to actually "set" the bone.. they did NOT tell me that I shouldn't be doing anything heavy or strenuous with the left side.. Me, pretending that I had lost my brain in the motorcycle accident, thinking the device was every bit as protective as a cast on a broken arm, dressed my one year old son the next morning.. and while we were dressing, we were playing.. and holding hands.. when he decided to play, "don't let me fall mommy" and threw himself backward on the couch.. Then I spent the entire day in misery, because he had displaced the break again.. and it was evening until I could get a ride to the doctor's office to have it re-set... He slid one of those round backless on rollers doctor's stools out told me to sit on one-half of the stool.. when I got situated.. he put his foot up on the other half of the stool, grabbed both my shoulders and pulled!!!.. Wasn't nearly as painful as it sounded describing it.. actually was quite a relief when the bone slid popped back into place.. Didn't mean to scare or worry you in anyway.. Please be very careful with anything you try to do, especially with the contraption off.. that you don't try to catch anything that might be falling.. or lift anything heavy with that arm... And I found that sleeping with a pillow between my shoulders, even a skimpy one, helped me sleep better and with little to no pain.. I sure hope that you're felling much better by now!!
