I am posting this for the benefit of those who were kind enough to offer advice and solicitations: Thank YOU!
The results are in (of the cat scan):
In layman terms, or at least how I understandiy; what happened is
the collarbone broke 1. at the end (I knew that) and 2. in three places
and apparently the ends are not meeting like they should and therefore
it's not healing and it doesn't look good as far as me getting out of
having to have a surgery. Apparently it will involve pins. Nothing's sure yet, I still have to meet w/ the surgeon but...I guess this explains the excruciating pain.
Warm regards, Karen
OK I PROMISE!!!
This is the end of the subject....I am getting off (relatively) easy-yay! While I am having surgery it's not going to involve pins or any other nasty stuff like that....just an arthroscopy to remove bone fragments (who knew? Well...the doctors SHOULD have...but anyway...). Aaaah what a relief. Thanks again for the advice and thoughtfulness...and as far the herbs suggestion? Well, in this case maybe if they were kind you could smoke? Just kidding!
