well this sux......
Broke my wrist on Sunday. Going in for the pins/screws next week... http://www.pelicanparts.com/support/smileys/huil.gif

Wow, sorry to hear that. Get plenty of good meds.
|
Ouch - I hope whatever you did was worth it!
How long until you can fly/wrench? |
Playing hockey..! I regularly play 1-3 times a week, and just took a wierd fall. Doc says ill be in a cast for up to 8 months without the screws, and 6-8 weeks with the surgery. Thats why i opted for the screws! Oh, and it hutrs pretty bad.. Thank goodness it was my left hand. Simple tasks, like brushing your teeth or wiping your butt are a major PITA when you hurt your dominant hand!

And the flight surgeon says? Please be careful what you tell them on meds before flying again. Contact AOPA if you are not totally clear on what is legal and not.
The feds will ground you for 90 days if you take codine. Does not matter if the medication is given to you by a doctor and its out of your system in 1-2 days, they are in the dark ages. Confirm what you were given by the doctors is ok to put on your medical form before you do it! |

I tore my ACL a couple weeks ago, playing volleyball, so I'm also on the injured reserve list. I already had this one reconstructed in '99. Looks like there won't be much of a track season for me :( |

Even when i broke my leg completely through in 3 places a few years back, i never took anything afterwards.. (aside from what they fed me in the IVs.) |
They will ask you to find out what was in the IV. Be ready beforehand and confirm that the meds are allowed. AOPA is a very good friend right now and do your homework beforehand.
