    as a doctor i can say, good that the doctors reactet so fast. Good is too that you hadn*t a open fracture.
    get well soon. a good opertaion is the half way. the other half is rehab!
    Waiting for new content in future !

      Thank you! Yeah I definitely got lucky with how quickly the hospital picked up on the compartment syndrome, could easily have went a lot worse!
      Looking forward to moving into the rehab stage now!
      If there’s anything in particular you’d like to see videos cover let me know and I’ll try my best 🙏

      Thank you! 🙌 I’ll definitely be making the most of the recovery time to build my leg back stronger and making sure the rest of my body is ready to go as soon as my legs healed 👌

    Despite everything this was a really entertaining video when you were documenting the days in the hospital😂😂 I am so impressed how positive you were too. Hope you heal up asap!

    Best of luck with the recovery; good to see the excellent post injury workouts (Physio with an extra edge!) I appreciate how you must have felt in hospital, way back as a 21yr old I also broke my leg/ankle while Parachuting serving in 3 Para, being military I got a helicopter ride (with pain relief!)from the site of injury, not a bumpy 4x4..... ended up in an RAF hospital in Akrotiri, Cyprus for 4 weeks prior to casevac back to UK by RAF.....4 months later back to full duties.

      Thank you! I’m really lucky to work with such a good physio with all the fancy tools!
      That’s crazy you were also in hospital in Cyprus for 4 weeks, bet it felt good to get home after that! And then 4 months back to full duties is really good going!

    Man that race was intense. I actually had a very similar fracture this time last year when racing a pump track. I only spent 11 days in hospital but I had to endure lots of plastic surgery and an iron man looking cage on my leg for a year. I am finally on my bike and cleared my first table top in a year last week.

      A cage being on for a year sounds brutal!! Bet it felt good clearing that table top last week 🙌

      Really unlucky! I had professional cycling travel insurance with Yellow Jersey and they covered everything 👌

    Very unlucky, maybe it’s go pro effect but I’m sure you’ll have had bigger crashes and walked away relatively unscathed. All the best for your recovery

    • @lachlan_blair
      @lachlan_blair  7 місяців тому

      The crash itself wasn’t bad at all, what actually broke my leg was that it got trapped between the ground and my pedal then the momentum just folded it in half 🤢 (and then I crashed into a bush 😂)
