Yeah! Finally got updates on my wrist injury!
Yesterday, I went to see a surgeon and we talked about what was going on with my wrist. He wrote me a paper to go pass a MRI, but the waiting list is at least one year. So he wrote on the paper URGENT and then he wrote, possible surgery!!!
He told me it might be some kind of diease '' Kienböck's disease ''.
Its mainly this :
In Kienböck's disease, the blood supply to one of the small bones of the hand near the wrist (the lunate) is interrupted.
And he told me that if its not treated as soon as possible, my wrist can stop moving. Like I wont be able to do anything with it! The treatment is surgery!
And yeah... he also said that if its not that, its a small torn ligament that cannot be treated. Or it is a cyst.
I hope ill pass that MRI as soon as possible! I dont want to basically loose my wrist!!
Thanks for reading!
Any advice? Or experience similar to this???

GYM:
I cannot do gym till my summer camp, gymrep. I might not be able to do stuff on my hands at camp! I kind of got use to staying at home when my sister goes to gym. But sometimes, on fridays when I really want to go see my friends I just go and sit down on the benches at gym lol.
Oh and I dont have to wear to protector for my wrist anymore. My hand was shaking because I was in the wrist thingy for too ong so the surgeon told me to stop wearing it! Im kind of happy because it was really bothering me sometimes but at the same time im a bit scared because I dont want to hurt it more!
