Default Osteochondroma

Yup, I got it. In my wrist. Found out today. :(

My wrist has been hurting for a while whenever I flex it (first one with a "inapropriate "joke gets PM spammed! ) causing pain in it. Just got the call from the doctor this morning and after looking at the x-rays and the CT scan, that'* what it is. I guess it'* like a cartilidge growth on the bone (would explainf the pain when flexing). Waiting for a call back in the next day or two to find out what'* next. Most likely I will be going to a hand speacialist for further treatment.

Don't worry though, this won't stop me form working on my car. A little beer acts nicely as a pain killer when needed!

Didn't say much about it. The doctor I went to see was a general practicioner so he is sending me to a speacialist to have it looked at.

You should see mine. Rows of BoostyBoy, plus the occasional Willwren.

I hope the wrist thing resolves itself with a minimum of drugs.

What do you expect after that much time being single, lmfao

I know alot of people wanted to say it, but I did.


I know you haven't been single for a while but it took this long for it to show up.
