Broken Bones

With all the friends that I know that have had them so far, Broken bones are seeming to be the injury of choice this early season... (ACL's were last year)

Make a list of everything you have broken/fractured (and how many times) whist skiing.

For me its: R. Ulna (1) L. Thumb (2) R. Thumb (1) R. Collarbone (1) R. Ribs (3) L. Ribs (1) L. Index (1) R. Pinkie (2) L. Foot (1)

GO!

broken bones are not even an injury. pffff.

only thing I broke was my fibula (right leg) and I was skiing the next day. Heck, I was skiing the SAME day.

Right now my MCL is parially torn.
And this is the only ingury I've ever had. Hope fully the last. ( Knock on wood.)

Or maybe set them correctly?

If they released and were set right, youre probably lucky you only broke bones... if they were set wrong, go bitchslap whoever binded them...

damn. good luck to her. i was on bed rest for about 3 months, then limited mobility after that (wheel chair, eventually crutches..). it sucks. seriously, if shes on bed rest or something, get some friends and go see her as much as possible, cause thats what kept me from going insane when i was stuck in bed. best of luck to her.

haha shes skiing in 2 weeks.

she says youre a pussy for being in 3 months bed rest for a compression fracture...

I cant really say anything because ive never broken a back... but according to her, you either had the worst compression fracture known to man, or youre a wuss...

Iono... according to me, any broken bone requires a shitload of rest... especially spine fracs...

Yeah, if anything, I consume too much calcium. My multi-vitamin contains extra calcium for women (osteoperosis prevention), I take three Viactiv calcium chews per day, consume gallon of milk in a 2-3 day period, and (other than water) the only other stuff I drink is Tropicana orange juice with calcium.

My list includes:
T6, T9, T10, L1, L4, L6 vertebrae
Sternum
9 Ribs
Right ulna (4x)
Right radius
Left ulna
Left radius
Every finger and toe, some of them as many as five times
Right metacarpal
Two right metatarsals
Couple carpals in my right wrist
Skull fracture
Mild fractures in my right hip (pelvis and femur) caused by lack of cartilage...
Left orbital

I guess not all of those were necessarily done by skiing, but a good number of them were. It's been fun.

ps: Sean, my inability to piss alone is NOT that funny! I can pee alone, I just can't get off of the toilet, ha.

I might have broken a rib or 2 and a lot of fingers but i not sure cause goin to the doctor for both of those things is pointless.
