Further update
A trip to the hospital yesterday for further x-rays. Everything looks good as far as the consultant is concerned and I've now got a lighter fibre glass cast. Better x-rays this time so I could clearly see the ti-plate (a cobra plate apparantly) and the stainless steel rods in the elbow. The pain is easing during the day (just agonizing in the morning). Back in three weeks...
