Ha! Mine rolls his eyes when he see's me, and at one point last year the local A&E knew me by my nickname!
Oberon, I think it was you who convinced me to go re-visit a&e when I got trodden on?
The man who put me in plaster told me that he would never, ever let his daughter near a horse I also got a telling off when I returned with a vetwrap bandage but without the cast so that I could ride easier, naturally) But that was entirely my mothers idea!
I think A&Es need a 'Horse Rider Protocol' where they get full body Xrays whether anything hurts or not
For future reference - yes you DO need it Xrayed. Just because you've been walking around for a week before seeking help doesn't mean you aren't broken
Picture this. Girls holiday for 5, 4 of us horsey. Girl 5 (non-horsey) arrives by pool with plaster on leg. Others query plaster - she scraped her leg the day before. Plaster removed forcibly by horsey girls. Did she get some abuse or what!
