"Broken collarbone"

About: Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh at Little France / Trauma and Orthopaedics Scottish Ambulance Service / Emergency Ambulance Western General Hospital (Edinburgh)

(as the patient),

In the rain, fell off my scooter and broke my collarbone. Made it home, but needed Scottish Ambulance Service to Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh for X-ray. Discharged following morning, but required surgery 2 weeks later because of awkward break. Complications due to fact I was on Warfarin. 2 months later, attending physio at Western General in Edinburgh, making a full recovery.
