I found out they did put one "very small" (whatever that means) piece of metal in. Probably start physical therapy this week and a follow up in Tucson in 2 weeks. The constant ache in my wrist is gone so that's a win, and now just wait and see how much strength I'll get back. According to the Dr it will be about 2 months before I'll be able to do ANY lifting of squeezing with the hand....I'm OK with that and will be following all the rules. Much as I will grumble some stuff will just get put off or if I have to I'll have someone else do it.
