Not so Humerus

So my second foray into the surgery turned out to be somewhat more than the promised quick visit.

I also received another titanium augmentation: a radial extension with an internal fixation. Basically a replacement of the ball joint.

I have yet to ascertain whether or not my funnybone has been removed.
