I'm not sure if this is like your problem or not. I went to the doctor a couple of times and he says my bones by my elbow are fused together. He said there is not surgery because if they correct it, it will just go back to how it is now because of some chemicals in my body or something. Also my elbow cracks very silently when I bend it, I'm not sure if yours does too. I just had to post this because I have never met anyone else with this problem that I have and I wanted to see if it is the same thing.
Whoa. Whoa. Whoa.

Yeah, I've never met anyone else like this... but where your bones are fused at your elbow, mine are fused at my wrist. As far as surgery, my doctor says its do-able. I don't know if this means my case isn't as bad as yours or if the different locations at which are bones are fused make that big a difference. Either way...

Nice to meet you.

That all said, considering you're on this forum, I can't help but wonder... do you weight train? or box? or... what? If so, how does your condition affect you? Maybe I could use some pointers.
