In a cast from my hand to my armpit it's sucks, doesn't hurt much, just a pain because I can't move my elbow, probably going to have a couple screws in my elbow in a few weeks
I've got all kinds of screws why wait, I'm not doing anything today and my drill is fully charged. I can put a couple screws in that thing for you.
In all seriousness I feel for you. I have a small hardware store in my right leg, you WILL feel it the rest of your life. Make sure once they fix it you stay on top of and even push the rehab if you ever want it to function right again.
