    Thanks everyone.

    It's done. It hurts worse than I expected, but I'm sure it will get better. I barfed on the way homr from the hospital, so I don't want to take a pill, but I really need to. Typing's a little difficult too, so that's it for today:)

    Your funny Abby, really glad it went OK for you. At least its going into the winter season and you'll have time to heal before the riding season. :)

    I'm doin better today. I'm finally able to take the drugs without barfing, so I'm not in too much pain. It's a little tough in the early morning when te drugs have worn off and I'm still trying ti sleep. my typing kinda sucks too. can't use my left hand at all. the lawyer is a lot more interested in my case now. there's a big surprise!

    When I get my new cast with the flames, I'll be sure to post pics.

    Abby, if your taking a lot of pain medication and other medication you might want to go easy on the alcohol for awhile. Looks like it hurts like hel1, sorry but get better and just rest that arm and hand. :)

    Yep it's big alright , at least you had you nails done before hand (small pun) look's like you need to keep it up a bit higher & let the marshmellow look go away faster :cool:

    What he said!!! Keep it up, will help with the swelling....less swelling will help with some of the discomfort. TRY not to mix much alcohol with narcotic pain meds..... they work together....VERY WELL, which is a great combo for such things as coma and death..... know you won't do that tho.:D Good luck and hope you are feeling better with every passing day!

    Get well soon, and as said, careful with the alcohol and pills.
