Scaphoid Fracture

Last night was a long night! Sleep is not easy when your wrist moves. My husband and I got up at 4:30 AM and watched some TIVO'd shows. It's miserable when you can"t sleep. I realized that my wrist was swelling, so I iced it and we took a trip to Beaumont Bone and Joint's emergency clinic. Now it's a confirmed scaphoid fracture. It looks stable, but my hubby warned me that I'll probably still have to have a screw put in it. Of course I had to go and break one of the two bones in your body that have a poor blood supply! So for now, it's a temporary cast until my doctor stops donating to those Vegas casinos.
