Lounge vibes please? I fractured something in my hand...

[Zornhau]

so apparently this longsword thing is dangerous...
i took a hit to the left hand last night while sparring and even with a padded blade and lacrosse gloves it still hurt like hell. i iced it there and @ the bar, hoping for the best, but my hand was very black & blue this morning. :( it's been downhill since...
mistake 1 was calling my primary care dr, who saw me & ordered outpatient x-rays. ok, probably cheaper, but once the dr there talked to my dr, i was supposed to go to their emergency room. but there was no orthopedist, and the orthopedist's office in the complex had no doctors in today. (all this mind you, 45min from home, since that's how far my dr's office is. thanks insurance!) so i came home and found that hartford was the closest covered ortho... so now i'm going out of network. and the ortho needs the outpatient place to fax over the x-rays, which he'll look @ and call me. that was 3 o'clock... still nothing, so i guess he'll get to me tomorrow? i just hope i'm not doing damage till then.
:grr: I love our medical system...
so how have you been?
