I am sorry Sally!

Take care...get well!

Good Morning everyone :):)

I had my body massage and I feel like I am floating. I can't remember
when I felt so loose. She said that my body was in knots. I laughed and said
that"s not all it is. While she was working I had a bad spasm on my shoulders
going down the back. But she was able to really help me with that. Better
then meds.

My daughter made an appointment for us for next month. She said I
need it and that it will propably help me more. :D

I don't know if my eyes are really going or what, but I can't find our
reality thread that we had going. Does anyone know where it went. Or is my
brain really fried?

I am glad you enjoyed your massage. I know I do mine! ;)

How's everyone doing today?

Has anyone heard from Geri?

Beth has a boo-boo [major whine]
 

Hi Everyone :Wave-Hello:
Missed ya all. I finally am back. Where have I been?, you ask. On the couch.

On 2/1, I was walking down the stairs to my sisters basement and missed the last two steps. I landed and rolled my ankle. I knew it was bad. I wish I had broke it. Nope, a horrible sprain. :eek:

It is 9 days later and it is still 3 times the size it should be. It's so colorful, like a depressed rainbow. From my toes up my leg. (my knee is sprained too)And the pain is a 10. No, vicodin doesn't help. I can't take more as I can barely handle crutches without any meds. The crutches are upping my uncomforted pain in my hands.

I start PT on the 14th. I can hardly wait. Maybe they can take the pain away.

Dad has healed so quickly from his hip replacement, by necessity. Good thing huh? :confused: Although having to take care of me is tiring him out a bit. He has doubled my rent. :D

I just wanted to touch base with you all, and let you know I'm here and won't be going far for a while. :wink:

:grouphug:

Oh, Beth! How nasty for you. I'm glad you checked in, I had begun to worry about you. We need to look out for our little posse of oldbies.:grouphug:

Oh, Beth, how awful for you. :( I've missed you bunches and glad you are on the mend.

Take care..:hug:

Jeez Beth!

Way to make an entrance!

You more than likely would have had an easier time if it had broken! All sorts of ligaments and muscles probably twisted and are screaming in pain to you right now!

I did the same thing a few years ago. It didn't stop hurting and swelling didn't go down. I went back and asked for an orthopedist and told him something else was wrong. After another xray, he found that a ligament had torn away from the bone and taken a piece of bone with it.

I got three months of workman's comp for it, along with drugs, PT, an air cast and better crutches ( it happened at work :D)

If the swelling and pain do not lessen, I would go see the doc again. There may be something they didn't see.

I hope you feel better soon!:hug:

Wow Beth you really did it. :(

Take care and hope that you feel better as the days go on.

Keep us informed on how you are feeling

Wishing you well, and glad that DF is doing better.

Beth :eek: I am glad you checked in too! I have done the same thing and broken my ankle too! Breaking it is much better and heals quicker!

Crutches are a pain to use. I got to the point where I was using my roller chair from desk to get around the house rather than those stupid crutches. Thought I would kill myself on the crutches! And me and stairs on crutches! Free Entertainment!

I hope you heal fast and get back to your ol' self again! :hug:
