OK...yay for me, my finger is not broken. Last Thursday, I went to an orthopedic surgeon and he looked at my x-rays. He said that there is a bit of bone that has chipped but it isn't anything to worry about. They are going to treat it as a sprain. He took my 1/2 cast off as well as the rest of the wrapping. It was pretty black and blue and it hurts to try and bend it or even straighten it completely. I will take that over the cast anyday. The dr. said that if I work it out and "exercise" it, I should be ok in a month or so. If I don't, it'll stiffen up even more and I'll have to have physical therapy to help relieve the tightness. So, typing is good. I went back to work and got SOOOOO much done now that I don't have to type with a pen in my right hand. Besides the fact that that looked incredibly ridiculous, it was making my arm ache. It feels good to be free.
As for my surgery, more details to come this week on the next step.
