Doing any physio?

 

Have you gone for the second surgery yet?

 

Tried cbd?

 

Was that from the spring compressor?

 

yeah I know what you mean haha I saw the price hahaha ill wait and see if maybe I can get the OEM ones to work hahahaha

 

Well everyone seemed to have some fun over the weekend, i ended up testing out my recovery gear
long story short, was moving the trailer around at the cottage since I've cleared out a larger section of bush


at least i know the pulley i got from the jeep guys can withstand dragging an 8000 lbs tandem axle trailer around.

Also on a side note; does anyone actually use a trailer mounted winch or am i the only one considering it?

 

Not yet. The doc wants me to wait a couple months. There is still a lot of muscle damage and swelling from the first surgery. Once I have second surgery I'll be back in a cast for another 3 months.

 

Dood, frankenhand! What is this!?

 

Sounds lovey. Hopefully all goes well the second time!

 

Physiotherapist cancelled until after the next surgery. The ligament reconstruction failed so the bones are only held by whatever remains of the construct. Continuing physio at this point would likely cause more damage and pain.

 

This is the next surgery.

Scaphoid lunate advance collapse.

 

The human wrist is such a fvcked up joynt. So many uni's to support the limited movement. So inefficient

who else taco is on Google maps?

 

Jesus. Almost had to get something similar done to my thumb to keep it from dislocating. Super crazy surgery.

 

Just shows you stay at home and wash your truck instead of using it.

 

I hear ya man.
My wrist was blown apart, Took about a year before I was certified for light service then second year I was back in action. Plates, Pins, wires and seemed like for the first 3 months was surgeries every other week. Blah. Surgeons were amazed I got full motion and strength back. But I kept doing my physio all the time.

Bright point is it will help you become ambidextrous, and you get some really cute scars to impress the ladies.

I got my pain pills prescribed as the smaller size but more pills per dose, that was so I could ration them down so I could save some for when the doctor cut them off. You don't have the bones blown away but tendons still ache and hurt longer than you and the docs will imagine. Especially on cold damp days.

Casts, only thing I think about with the cast was how good it felt to scratch when it came off, nurse was laughing when I said this is better than masturbation.

 

That trailer winch thing must be for working around a trailer park? Since it is electric motor? All the sites have plugs so its easy to use?












I have never seen such a thing.

 

yeah it's a 120/208v connector attached to it, used a Honda EB5000x generator that purrs like a kitten feeding it.
got the trailer winch originally to try and dredge out some muck outta the lake to get to the sand (clearing out space to make a bit of a beach)
worked pretty well.

(and no i'm not a trailer park - it's a temp 4 season trailer for when we start building on the parcel of land - lets me stay up there and tolerate the cold a little longer)

 

Sure thing Bubbles.. wink wink
