Update

I'm feeling quite a bit better. I've checked the prognosis for this kind of shoulder separation and it's 8-12 weeks, no surgery required. I won't know for sure until I see the specialist next week but there doesn't seem much risk that it's any more serious than that.

I'm finding that I can still use my right hand for some things, albeit awkwardly, even with the sling on. Typing is definitely slower than usual though and left-handed mousing is purgatory. So far I haven't had to do anything near as bad as the drive home from Markham on Sunday. That was absolute hell. Every gear change was agony. I don't think I'll be driving again until the sling comes off.

It's probably as well there are no kittens at the moment but :LJG is being very snuggly so maybe I'm getting the best of both worlds. Non stinky kitten lurve!

Oh, that sounds more positive (although I can't get voiceposts, so I've been out of the loop)! Hope you heal quick!

why can't you get voice posts?

No sound on the office PC and an ancient pooter with dial-up at home. Experience has shown that voice posts break it. :(
