Well, BenB's back to work but I'm not. I had my Dr's appointment on Friday. They cut off the cast that's had been on since I got out of the hospital. Found out that there are three incisions... one on either side and one in the middle and they took out the 35 or so staples. The new cast puts my foot at a 90 degree angle (as opposed to the roughly 110 or 120 degree angle that it was at with the toes pointing down and out).
I also got to see the x-ray and found out exactly what's in me. I have 11 screws and a plate... two screws on the inside of the ankle and 9 on the outside. On that vein does anyone have any suggestions on reading a human barometer? Called work and scheduled an appointment with the HR person to ask about work. I'm in a wierd situation since I started the new job on Feb 1 and fell (on the job) on Feb 24. I was in a 90 day evaluation period that and had the same delay for my benefits. The meeting was to see about finding a desk job for me and asking the carefully worded question, "is the 90 days based on date of hire or days worked?" The result was a good one, they decided that for my benifits they would start them based on the date of hire. They also decided that my probation/evaluation period would be based on the actual time worked. However, they don't want me back in the office until I can do the job that I was hired to do, so that means that I'm off work on worker's comp until the middle or end of May. Can someone say cabin fever, stir crazy, get me outta here!!!
