The End...
Today is a day for believing to get moving...I went to the Dr. for my wrist this afternoon and came out with this lovely brace...
Yes, I got an upgrade from last week's brace and this one is beyond difficult to type, text, do anything productive with...and I have 3 weeks to master it :) The Dr. told me that my tendons leading into the wrist area (thumb-side) are intertwined, which is something he sees very rarely, but is not terribly serious - which is the positive piece - there is no fracture and the "misplaced" bone they had mentioned, is actually just a lip where my growth plate closed.
I need to wear this brace for at least 3 weeks, and after 3 weeks of immobility, he thinks the tendons will calm down and return to normal placement, but if the swelling and pain persist, I will need to do therapy and potentially a cortisone shot.
So for now I am cursing my keyboard, and trying to figure out if I am going to run the full half marathon with this thing on, or just deal with the pain for just under 2 hours. I am thinking I will do the latter, just because this is heavy and I don't want to disrupt my gate at all with a messes up arm swing, and I don't want all of my energy to be wasted keeping my arm swinging and supported. I am allowed to run, and to take this off when I shower and such, which is an amazing positive as well.
This really puts a hinder in my yoga classes (I had 4 more to Karma to use up before March 1st!) and a Barre class I was going to try (I bought 3 classes to be used by April 1st).

Have you ever had a wrist injury? Did you keep running/working out?
