Default Re: Worst injury/injuries you\'ve sustained?

Broken ankle in high school ball. It broke the growth plate, and the docs thought I might have some growth left in me, so its got two pins in it to this day.

I broke the same ankle again when i was in Germany about 5 years later. The docs took an xray, and then came back in to ask me what the [censored] was in my ankle. Those two docs then proceeded to call in about 4 more to show them the xrays, and have me explain the whole thing over again. I know those guys had to have been trained in that stuff before, but it honestly seemed like they were amazed and had never seen such a thing. Definitely put a bad taste in my mouth for the health care over there.
