Just out of Hospital
« on: November 19, 2009, 01:20:56 PM »
Well i went in to have the metalwork removed from my spine that has been there since a bike accident in 2006. Talking to the registrar afterwards he said it took 11/2 hours as the screws had cold-welded themselves in to the bone. Apparantly it put the Surgeon in a very bad mood , but fair play to him for getting out his big tool  [pray]

Resting at home now, it's bloody sore but i'll be out on the bike before xmas  :icon_thumleft:

Nah mate, the Mallory crash was 2007, about a year later.  Should be ok as 3 vertebrae are fused together so strength isn't really an issue any more, i'm a bit less mobile thats all
