Hi, just wondered if anyone had any advice or experience of this. I broke my arm two weeks ago and had to have a metal plate fitted and a 3 night stay in hospital. I felt rough and was in pain the first week, and this week felt a bit better so have been driving, caring for dd on my own and went back to work today.
But at work, I started feeling really achey, like my skin hurt all over, and generally felt ill and so tired I could cry. I have had a lot of stress recently with having to move soon unexpectedly, work/money worries, ex probs and being a single mum while struggling with depression.
I suppose i'm worried i'm becoming ill due to the op, as I was told infection was a complication in this type of surgery, or i've just done too much too soon or i'm just tired. My arm is hurting more and feels more stiff, I just want to cry.
