HEY EVERYBODY!!!
I am a new member who has just recently returned to the gym.I do alot of mountain hiking, venturing into back country looking for hot springs, swimming and camping. I am an independant female who loves the outdoors....quadding, sledding, and street bikes, it was always a plan to have my own bike.
But I broke my left wrist in 2011..had 7 surgeries to try and fix it. But my orthopedic surgeon and I were thrown a curve ball before the last surgery. It turned out that my wrist bone had self dissolved so a biopsy was done while i was under and nothing showed up as an explanation why the bone dissolved. I still have no idea why it happened but its really screwed up my life. My left hand is screwed....weak and drops things, and it is VERY painful. It is the outer bone, the one with the knuckle, that disolved so my wrist is connected by one bone and is very unstable.
I ran into some old friends and they mentioned steriods and/ or hormone therapy....that it might help? I am on narcotic pain pills and it would be great to get off of them....I have been dignosed with chronic pain syndrome and there is nothing medically that can be done.
DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY ADVICE? ANY IDEAS? I appreciate anything that anybody has to offer...or say!
THANKS EVERYONE!!!
