Hey guys. This is my daughter's arm as of last night. ER doc looked at it and told us to consult ortho today. Waiting for them to call me back........appt. desk is being manned by a total biotch who insists that she can't be seen until Thursday unless she is a surgical candidate. :roll: Yet, I have the xrays in my possession. How in the hell do they know if she is a surgical candidate without seeing her today? Apparently the receptionist is telepathic. :evil: Tell me folks, would you want this seen today?????????

*** I can't seem to get them edited. I edit them, and they appear edited in photobucket, but when they post they show up with the name back on them???? Got to run pick up kids at school. Will try again shortly.****

Me too. Just got off the phone with the receptionist again who tells me she has called the dictation line at the ER and understands that the bone is "moderately angulated". :? Moderate? So, what does a severe angulation look like? Sticking thru the skin I assume.

Tina,
You need to alter those pics. Black out the medical provider's name AND the accession number on the film (the accxxxxxxx). With that info, some scumbag could get all kinds of information you don't want them to have. Sounds crazy, but it's all too true, better safe than sorry.

Actually, I PMd her that several hours ago and she hasn't replied so I think she is not around.

I'm going to remove the pics for now... better safe than sorry.

My mother just broke her foot in three places and did surgery. Not fun.

I Hope your girl heels quick!!

At least it's looks like a fairly clean break.

I haven't been so lucky when I've banged myself up - hairline fractures and splintered bones - yeah - that one was LOADS of fun - NOT!!!

Sounds like she's a tough kid. I hope she heals quick.

it doesn't take a medic (or a CRNA for that matter :wink: ) to see that the break is baaaaaad and will need surgery..

:D

01-17-2007, 09:11 AM

Well yeah, I figured THAT much out (I'm not THAT dumb!!) :-P

I was wondering if it requires a pin (probably), if that's classified as a green-stick fracture (I think that's the term), and how long it'll take to heal?

Poor kid!!! :(

I'd like for Tina to get her fat azz back here and tell us whats going on!

Surgery is scheduled for Friday at noon. They took new x-rays today. Apparently the x-rays I posted aren't very good shots because BOTH bones are snapped clean thru and displaced. Today's x-rays look much worse. :cool: They will both require plates and screws. Fun. Fun. :?

Remember when DH called to tell me one of our kids had just lost the tip of his finger when he slammed the door on it! He was so afraid it happened on "his" shift. :? How old is she Tina??

Much better. She has new pain meds, got lunch with Mama at her favorite...Ryan's, and is totally relieved that they will be knocking her out to fix it. She's as good emotionally today as she has been. :)

If they could screw her back together, ANYTHING's possible. :lol:

Pfffft. Like that matters to you people. Apparently, my boyfriend is gay, in a biker gang, has a plethora of small rodents up his poop chute, and has stinky hair.

Don't think that relationship can go anywhere, now do we?

Now...show me your boobs.

And...sorry about your daughter. xdancex

Soooo...let me just give ya'll the run down on my SUCK ASS day. :roll: We show up at our local hospital this morning for pre-op only to discover that......INSURANCE HAS DENIED OUR CHOSEN ORTHO AND HOSPITAL because they are "out of network". They will only pay in network......are denying ALL out of network claims. :evil: So, we scramble, pull every string imaginable (and I think I owe a doc a sexual favor) and get her in to see new approved ortho at 1:00 today....and hour drive away....on icy roads.......get there, wait 2 hours, see a Dr. who tells us the exact same thing first doc did, then I have to yell at someone to get surgery TOMORROW as opposed to next week. Get sent over to hospital where we wait 2 more hours to get thru pre-op...and have to drive an hour back up there in the morning for 7:00 a.m. surgery. ALL BECAUSE OF INSURANCE.

Insurance can KISS MY ARSE. xxHellxx xxHellxx xxHellxx xxHellxx xxHellxx

I hate that. Don't those idiots check first?
Why put a little kid through all that and the family?

Why do they not have a system in place to check before all that takes place.
That has happened to us before too.
