Wrist Update

X-Rays prove that I didn't break any bones, the MRI proved inconclusive. Next step is a second MRI with contrast of some type. On the other hand, I've been keeping my wrist brace on constantly, icing down the wrist twice a day, and I'm gaining back mobility.

I still can't pick up objects over 2 lbs with that hand, or unlock my front door with a twist of the left hand... progress is slow. The doctor didn't say stop skiing, but he also didn't say keep doing it. I'm thinking of keeping the wrist brace on, buying a larger pair of gloves, and just hoping for the best.

Worst case, surgery with a season ending recovery time. Keeping fingers crossed until the next MRI scan.
