I just wanted to say a big thanks to the guys who helped me down to the Road today, and the mountain rescue teamwork looked after me. I'm currently waiting for an operation on my arm and In whole world of pain now the drugs have warned off.

Moral of the story. Comminting to rounded sandy top outs on your own really isn't worth it sometimes 

Get well soon man! Hope it's not too big an op and you make a quick recovery.

Cheers

Ouch! Is that blood on your troos? Hope it's not quite as bad as it looks.   

Yes, I think I had some bone sticking out of elbow, so fekin annoying a winter of training wipedout in a stupid moment of overconfidence.

Also nor impressed by what three words trying to spell on the phone whilst hyperventilating through pain quite hard

Wishing you a fast recovery. Am wincing in sympathy. 

Yikes, hope that mends soon!

Sorry to hear this. Get well soon.

Ouch, that is not a good ending to your earlier request for Scugdale doggy info.

Get well soon, and hope you're getting at least some sympathy from the Mrs.

Oh crap! Mend well and all best

p.s. bonus points for having logged your climbs, despite a broken arm. That's commitment!

I've nowt else to do! Currently waiting on the ward for an operation this afternoon. Apparently I didn't actually break anything but lots of soft tissue damage, which I think is possibley worse....

Sorry to hear that, sounds tough. Perhaps it will be less bad than you understandably fear. Mend well and do post an update. Sending sympathy.

Thanks, and thanks to everyone else on the thread for your support.

Hi Tom, it’s Chris the climber who helped you down yesterday. Glad you are getting fixed up hope the operation goes ok.

just wanted to wish you a speedy recovery, and who knows might see you at the crags soon.

all the best

Thanks Chris for keeping calm and sorting everything out, it would have all been a bit Doug Scot without you and the two walkers. I definitely owe you one (and Cleveland MR).

👍I’ll bring some more pads next time you are up in Yorkshire!

Any update? Op going ahead? Gone ok?

Fingers crossed for 6 probably still raining anyway weeks in a cast then back on it.

Ouch hope you have a speedy recovery.

Just got out of surgery. It doesn't sound good, i have torn all the ligaments😬

Torn ligaments are an arse, best wishes for them getting you sorted out. Falling off at the top of Scugdale never particularly appealed, rope or pad!

Hope it all works out. All the best...

Hmm, take your time, recover properly and fully rather than quickly

Balls. I guess like others have said listen to the physiopathists and rehab it properly then. Still might not rule out getting out before summer's over....

If nothing else, by logging it as 'sent' you might at least make Best of UKC 😉

Sorry to hear you’ve done yourself a bit of a mischief. Wishing you well and all the best for your recovery.

You’ll be back, of that I have no doubt, just concentrate on recovery and healing and you’ll be reet.
