I thought today would go against tradition and be lucky for me

had my fracture review at A&E this morning

it's not so much bad news as inconclusive but it's not good news

still have a cast on my wrist and have to wait for an appointment in 2-3 weeks for a bone scan to be certain

they think there may be a hairline fracture in the scaphoid - bone scan will confirm



so - that's scuppered my plans in coming weeks cos i still cant drive

waiting for boss to call back and tell me if he wants me to get signed off for two weeks or if they will let me work reduced days & hours

*sighs*

Oh bless you but it could be a blessing in disguise babe and prevent you being involved in something much worse!!

ooh thats the one i broke and even when they found it on the bone scan after 5 weeks there was nothing they could do. Just started physio to try and sort out the tendons which is very painful and i still cant take any weight on my wrist and this happened in October 2006.

Dont hold your breath.......

dont be fobbed off with it will get better on its own either

hope you feel better soon ;-)

Oh b***er Anne, that scuppers Norwich for you unless someone else is coming from your area. I am so disappointed for you and for us.
We will have to arrange another meet when you are fit to drive again, gives you time to save up so you can defo stay over.
Hope things look up for you soon.

Thanks D and Lisa ~~~~~waves~~~~~

Hi Liz

Yes afraid Norwich seems to be out off the question - can't drive, and i did look into trains but it's about 4-5 hours with about 5 changes!!!

If it was a simpler journey i would do it -but ......


But like Diana hinted - it's happened for a reason

Anita

One tip when talking to boss...... don't let them reduce your pay if you are doing reduced hours..... as they would have to pay you in full if you went off sick

xx

Diana

already thought of that one lol

if he comes back and says less hours but less pay, then i won't be going in

already told him it's costing me alot more to use the train than i would spend on petrol

and shopping is costing more cos i am using small local shops and/or paying for tesco delivery

Well done kiddo..... you're doing him a favour by going in whilst in a caste so don't let him think otherwise!!

xx

Yep - he knows - told him HE had two choices lol

:o)

ANITA
REFRESH MY MEMORIE
HOW DID YOU HURT YOUR WRIST

Gwen i fell at top of stairs and landed on both hands palms down


Sue - my actual boss is okay, couldn't ask for better, but it depends what Head Office tell him

Scaphoid bone is a very complex bone....if not treated appropriately..can have major probs later on..

It is also a bone that does not show if fractured 10
days post injury...

I only know this..coz I work in A.E...and put lots of plaster casts on these type of injuries..

McA,,,,
Sorry its not such better news ,,,must be such a hinderance,but hopfully will save problems later on by not taking the cast off,,,,,

Your boss shouldnt want you to work,,if was your boss I would have took you home the first day and on full pay,,,)

Been wondering about you Anita.
Sorry it wasn't better news, but like Diana says, may be a blessing in disguise.

McAnne
oh p** thats not what you wanted is it.

for your online shop have you gone to one of the voucher code sites that give all the codes can get either points or money off your shop could save you the delivery charge.
