Help, I've fallen and I can't get up!

Getting out of my car on my way to work on Friday morning, I put my foot directly in a pile of slushy snow covered ice and fell smack down on my hip, first hitting the car then the cement below. After the initial shock of the worst pain ever had passed, I wiped away my tears and pulled myself up and realized I had hurt myself pretty bad when I couldn't put much weight on my foot. So I picked up my work bag and hobbled the two blocks to work. Once I got up to my floor, the girls started gushing over me and telling me I should go home for the day. But I saw that there was already a sick call that they hadn't replaced and I didn't want to leave them even more short staffed, so I offered to do the desk for the day and do admissions, but they wouldn't have that. They stuck me in a wheel chair and rolled me down to emerg. I had xrays and they were clear, so I was told that I had damaged my soft tissue and I had to go home to rest for 7-10 days. I was given a script for percocets (thank god for percs!) and an anti inflammatory (which I told the doctor that I had an ulcer, but he assured me he had given me a gentle one and it was safe to take it, however now I am in more pain from my stomach than my hip!). So I have been laying in bed for 24 hours being waited on by Ian and my sister and drifting in and out of a narcotic induced coma. I hope I don't become addicted!

Drop by and gimme some love! I am bored!
