Oakleaf, I hadn't seen your message when I'd typed mine; my apologies. (I often doze off as I type because of the meds; took hours for me to get an email off to my manager today!)

Thanks for good wishes, all.

One thing that I have been able to wear that has been helpful is a TE full zip road jersey. Needs washing now (ho, boy, does it ever!), but it was easy to slip on over the (huge, heavy) cast AND comes with handy pockets for carrying things. Comfy, too.
