I've found that life I needed.. It's HERE!!
it took a while to heal as they cut through muscle and everything to be able to put the plates in,i couldnt move my fingers for about 5 weeks.was at physio twice a week which helped and did lots of excercises at home as realy wanted my arm working as soon as possible as was racing motorbikes at the time.i did it in august 95 and was was still under hospital supervision until the end of march 96.broke it again in 2001 i think it was and on the xrays there was a new break as expected but the original break was still there as well,so they just potted it and sent me on my way but have been to the hallamshire with nerve problems and allsorts since.and the bastard thing still plays up now dosent like the damp and cold weather

hit from behind
by a car
doing between 35-40 mph
hit my knees
flipped up over the top
landed in a heap
apparently
i can't remember shit about it, lost virtually 99% of my memory, the only thing i could remember was how to talk and transformers, couldn't remember anyone of my family, couldn't read, write, count, nothing so had to learn it all over again
which explains the funny shape of my head, my dyslexia and, probably, why i don't "get" stuff

Not exactly.
I first went to the doctors with it some years back, thinking that was what it was (hadn't had anything like it before, so nothing to compare it to, and that seemed the only obvious explanation). Turns out it's a condition that's like a form of eczema that only attacks very thin skin layering and things that get stretched and such like (ie/ your ring). So I've been having to apply a steroid cream (not anabolic steriods, I'm not trying to bulk up my arsehole), which cured it for quite a while, but no it's back with a vengeance, and the cream doesn't do a hell of a lot any more, so time for an intricate operation to look forward to...

I'm going in next week to have my tail bone removed
Dojj's accident makes me feel very lucky - I rode across a country road on my bike when I was little without looking and got hit square on by a car. I did a flip over the roof of the car, landed on my back on the road behind the car and was completely un-hurt... not even a bruise! I did have to push my bent bike home which then got a puncture in the only wheel that would turn so I had to carry it home And it put a good few dents in the car apparently

When i was a kid i fell off a pogo stick and bit my tongue badly when it smashed me under the chin as i fell, my tongue of split 3 ways at the end needed to have 6 stitches, the injections to numb my tongue were the most painful ones ive ever had! 
Also had those steri-strip things on my balls when i was a young un too, after falling on a bag of knitting and knitting needles
I've also broken my Radius and Ulna in a bike accident, 2 operations and a few pins and plates later its all mended.
Heres a copy of my x[ray showing the breaks
and the wounds the surgeon made to get access, 52 staples in those
i have more photos which i'll sort out later on

madsi very similar to my forearm breaks and pretty much the same location too, both the ulna and radius too - you dont do things by halves. Bike accident same as myself. How long back? does it still cause you bother??
Cool having your own copys of your x-rays, i've recently writen off for a copy of mine too, seems to be taking weeks though.

my mate used to sell the measuring devices used to see how deep the ball joint goes into the bone on hip replacements and the glue the use to glue it into place
they cost an absolutle fortune but there are several different ones:
you've got your very basic ball joint that rests up against the bone
then you've got what is basicly a rose joint inside the ball to give you more flexability
then the top ones have a double rose joint, one inside the other to give you just as much flexability as you could hope for, which seem to be almost what you've got in there benni

[quote=Fudgey;3991106]for my nose job i had kind of tampons inserted up my nose, and accross the roof of my throat. those cunts were at least 6 inches long and made me gag as they they pulled them out.
I had these when i had polips removed from my nose. Fuck me they hurt when they came out! bled so bad i had to stay in an extra night, was well pissed off
Polips are growths inside the nose and apparantly look like half eaten grapes, nice!
had the op around two years ago and it aint helped! i cant breathe through my nose properly and i cant smell, should do something about it really but ive learnt to live with it as it took doctors around five years to realise i should have an op!
My accident prone brother
Got his finger trapped between a jack and a truck, i think it was on axle stands and it slipped off on to the jack, practically chopped his finger off was just hanging by skin on the inside of his finger. happened over a year ago and he still cant use his finger properly, had bolts and screws put in it.

I must've read that about four times before it sank in.
But no wise cracks from me, it looks painful.
(You can see the original tattoo before the cover up too
)Looking at the pics and reading the stories so far it's certainly an eye opener. There's some lucky peeps about.

I've found that life I needed.. It's HERE!!
i do have a story about mine the may some cringe.i had dislocated my elbow on the snapped arm,so they had to put it back in place while i was concious but the doctors had to grab my broken bones and wriggle it back.i could feel the bones grinding together and it was seriously painfull.and to the others with the head injuries(as did that as well among other things) i suffer from a pretty crap memory now and cant tell the time on a faced clock and developed a fear of water.anyone else have strange after effects?

i forgot one
dislocated my collar bone, ran into one of them swing poles and bent the bone up and over (or is it under and behind) the other bit so my arm was pointing up like superman
properly sparko'd i was for a few minutes
the ambulance got me to hospital and they gave me something to numb the pain and then slowly eased my arm down again until it went "click" as the bone sorted itself out
my right collar bone is now visably "bent" and my left collarbone is dead straight
i also lost a bit of my ear as it was hanging off, evander holyfield style after a mauling from lion mike tyson
