Had my 2wk check-up with the doc this afternoon.  They removed the clunky splint and suchers, as well as took more x-rays.  The x-rays look good and the doc says that the bones are staying in perfect position.  Next week they should be removing the three external pins.  Apparently, this is done with a pliers!  I intend to take video of the procedure to share will everyone
 
They also had me visit with the occupational therapist (OT) to give me a few exercises to work on, as well as fit me with a plastic removable splint.  This thing is tons better then the ace bandage wrapped split that was used after surgery.  It is 1/4 the weight and stops mid forearm and best of all it is removable for doing flexibility exercises.
 
I have more photos and tried to post but sb.com choked on them.  I will try again later.
 
Next appointment is next week Monday and I am looking forward to the removal of these stupid pins.

3 wks.  Just got back from the doc and PT.  What a relief, they removed the three pins.  They used a needle nose pliers to remove them.  Just a simple grab and twist and they came right out, no pain at all.
 
The report is very good.  The doc said that everything looks perfect and he said that he wasn't trying to brag either.  He said that the fracture was REALLY bad and that there were several bone pieces to put back into place.  He was very pleased with how things were going.
 
I am still in the same 2-piece plastic splint and will be in it for 2-3 more weeks.  I have various PT exercises to do to regain range of motion.  The only activity that I am allowed to do without the splint is typing, which has gotten alot easier.  It is great to be able to type more then two words per minute.
 
Next appointment is in 3 wks.  Sounds like it will be a total of 12wks (April 21st) before all restrictions are removed.  That works for me, since this should have me ready for wakeboarding season.  I have a business trip to Orlando at the end of April and I think I will plan to hit the cable park while I am there.
 
 
03.03.08
It has been 5wks since the surgery and I had another PT appointment today.  Not alot new to share except that things are progressing as expected.  I go back to see the doc in a week for more x-rays.  Hopefully, the report is good and I won't have to wear the plastic splint for everyday activity.  I am looking forward to the go ahead to start more aggressive PT and get range of motion back.  Range a of motion is very limited right now at about 35 degrees down and 25 degrees back.
 
 
03.10.08
6wks since the surgery and saw the doc this afternoon for more x-rays.  The x-rays show that the bone is mostly healed and the doc said that I don't need the plastic splint anymore.  This is great news!  Next is more aggressive PT and strength training.  The next doc appointment is in 5wks and this should be my go ahead to do anything that I want.
 
03.25.08
Ok, its been 8wks since the surgery and I had another PT appointment today.  I have gotten 90% of my range of motion back in all directions and the therapists says that I am doing GREAT! 
 
I experience slight pain when in any extreme position, but this is to be expected.   Just have to work on getting some strength back before WB season starts.  I have the strength of a 3rd grader right now--I am strength training with 3, 4, and 5 lb dumb bells right now
