Sorry about that... hope you get better, and pain free, asap. Is it a bad break? Is it your right/left and are you right/left handed?

I wish you a speedy recovery. Is it a simple fracture? I have broken both my arms in the past. Good as new now. Is it your wrist or Radius or Ulna in your upper arm?

Had my arm in cast for a long time, from a hair line fracture.

The immobility can drive you nuts. But you do get used to it.

I wish you a speedy recovery.

I feel you! I broke my arm when I was 8 years old and was stuck in a cast for a little over a month. It's not a fun experience.

Trying to remember everything asked as I'm still getting used to typing one handed:

Dislocated my elbow but also broke off two fragments that will require surgery, along with a break near my wrist.
I'm right handed - which is now in a sling.
As I'm a writer, I'll have to learn proficiency typing one handed for a while.
I was answering a knock on the door when I stepped on a toy, which flew froward while I flew backward. I tried instinctively to catch myself with one arm as I fell backward, and the rest is history.
Thanks to everyone who responded.
