hi again grans. sorry i cant type properly on this computer one handed. i had an op on saturday to put in a titanium plate. my wrist had actually fractured in three places. it went well but i reacted badly to the anaesthetic and had to stay overnight. Since then the pain got loads worse but improving now. i have to keep my hand elevated to prevent swelling. i feel knocked for six, low, exhausted, no energy, trarful, self pitying and bloody useless. no idea when fracture clinic appointment will be to replace cast for something more comfortable. i feel i should be coping better than this. how do i regain my energy? i have to be in a cast for several weeks so cant garden which i love, or knit,or stitch. many people have worse things happen to them so i guess ill have to get a grip (haha) and get on with it. Should i be really feeling this tired and weak 4 days post op?
