At this point, the scapula fracture isn't really causing me any trouble. The joint there is fine (I also separated my AC joint), and I can move the arm through a good range of motion- but not "under its own power", so to speak. After seeing the orthopedist today and having an MRI done, he's ruled out nerve damage or a rotator cuff injury, so for now it's just wait and see. Right now I can shrug the shoulder through nearly a full range of motion, but I can barely pivot the arm at the shoulder at all.
I have sat on the bike and physically lifted my left arm onto the bar, but "press left, go left" ain't happening. I expect it'll probably be another month at least before I'm able to ride. Which gives me lots of time to fab up my new front fairing/flyscreen!
I already replaced the fucked-up bars, and I've got a mirror on the way. This afternoon I pulled the cans, wire-brushed the rust off the rashed areas, and sprayed 'em with some high-heat paint. She'll be ready before I am...
CT scans are cool!
