So, I had to go all the way to Derby hospital again today for my 6 month checkup to see if my operation worked or not. I got there in time, as my appointment was for 11:30am.
I waited an hour in the waiting room until I was finally told to go wait in a cubicle for the consultant. It was another hour before I was finally seen again! Gah.
I was expecting to see Mr Russell, the guy who did my op, as this is who I was told I would see. Unfortunately, it wasn't. But, at least the guy had a sense of humour. He had a look at my scar and asked how it'd been and gave me the thumbs up to start using my arm properly again. :D
Then I mentioned my right one, he prodded about, felt my nerve move and got a bit grossed out (Amusingly) and buggered off to ask the consultant if he was happy to do surgery on it! So, now I'm back on the waiting list to have my other elbow done!
Who knows, maybe I'll be fixed by the middle of next year. <3
