Sounds like I will have my 1st opperation Monday. The doctor said.... and I quote "Because there's so much damage, I'm going to have to go in from both sides. We'll make an incision on your wrist here (on the top) and here (on the bottom). Depending on how much hardware we have to use, you may get away with just 1 opperation, but this is not an easy opperation and you should be prepared for a second one to take some hardware out if we need to." 3 months minimum recovery including rehab.
So I asked him how much it would cost if My insurance didn't cover it. He started calculating for a minute looking at the ceiling.... I got impatient and said... Like over $5,000? He laughed and said Oh 3-4 times that if everything goes well.
Fun Fun... And then he gave me more drugs.
He actually called it hardware. I found it kind of funny, but my wife didn't think so. She's told me to go to Home Depot to get some F'in hardware.
Needless to say I will still be up at the track supporting my fellow riders. Garage 16 North.
