 Posted: 17:21 - 12 Jun 2006 Post subject: Today my pins/pelvic rack came off!! |
 |

Well, thought it was worth a post just to show you what it like to have one out and got some good pics and since everyone donated so kindy to get me back on the road i feel i owe it to you all
Before i got the rack off

Got there 10ish and had x-ray and then got the doc to agree to have the rack off today and not 19th . I didnt have any anesthetic or put to sleep so was quite painful
The first two pins came off a treat, were really lose and came out by hand, these hurt a bit but was barable
After first two pins came out

The pinsite after pin came out

The other two needed a tool to come out, the first of these hurt load but i griped my teeth and managed to get it off without anything for the pain , he let me have a go at doing it but was too painful so told him to do it while i squeezed the nurse's hand way too tightly
Me before trying to unscrew it and getting the biggest pain of my life!!

The last pin was way too painfull though, it was unbarable so they gave me some gas (the gas they give women in labor). It was amazing and felt like i was really stoned but wore off after about 15mins, really took the edge off the pain and lets you focus on other things. I really dont think i would be able to have it out without this.
Me on the gas, i felt very high at this point and took pics of everything!! lol

I didnt hurt to walk after and was just a bit achy, i though it would have been more painful, it hurt loads but i didnt think i would be able to get though without much pain relief.
Bed afterwards, was a fair bit of blood pic doesnt really show

Well i thought i tell you all and if any of you break your pelvis due to bikes you now know what having the rack off it like......not nice!!!!
Oh and i took the pins home, i think i might frame them
As you can see they are 15cm each rod, that a lot when its in your pelvis!!
