So from December 18 to March 16 I have relaxed...waited on things to get better....after several sets of X-rays...the choice is do nothing and hope for something better in 6 months...or have surgery and fix the collarbone... And we have a winner. Que the voice over from the 6 million dollar man. "We can rebuild him!" and after an hour of surgery lots of screws a new tattoo ( i was worried about that) and a weekend of drugs I am glad to say that we are getting better....two days sober and ready for the rehab to begin!
Let's do this!

Not Healing
So after 2 months and 19 days my Collar Bone is not healing... I am at a crossroads... surgery or waiting more for the bones to heal... Below are pictures from today's follow up visit
If we do surgery it will be a general anesthesia and put a 3.5 mm screw in and a plate and some smaller screws to hold the plate in. will be at least 2 weeks before I can get active again. Dr said I have alot going for me being a non-smoker, good posture, healthy. But for what ever reason the bones are not growing back to gether... guess my old age is catching up.
Looks like my plans and goals will be changing for this year... but just glad to be around to change them.
