So Monday was a day full of doctors, including taking Tyler to get his ankle checked. He rolled it on April 26th, his bad ankle that he twisted years ago on a Halloween night in the dark - and he's been walking on it ever since. He mentioned on Sunday when we picked him up that the nursing students he hangs out with all kinda freaked out when he ( Read more... )

Monday night got home from work, and noticed Pixie had piddled on the floor.  Cleaned it up and then wiped the floor with glass cleaner type spray.  I was not paying attention as I walked back into the computer room, all dressed up in heels and a suit, when I hit the newly cleaned still wet bit of floor, bent my left ankle 90 degrees, went down on ( Read more... )

Radiologist did not see anything unusual with my xray - doctor wants me to treat it conservatively (boot, elevate when not on my feet, ice if needed) for the next week, and if it does not improve, she'll refer me to Ortho. I get to sport this sexy footware for another several days. Here's hoping this will work and it was just I tweaked the tendon ( Read more... )

MAJOR abdominal pain. Could be ovulation, because part of it under my left hipbone, but seriously, cramping so badly for no reason that I have trouble getting up once I sit. Heating pad and ibuprofin not helping yet. Getting increasingly upset that I have not heard from the ob/gyn, to discuss such a subject as a hysterectomy and the need to see ( Read more... )

Slight pain when dr manipulated my foot - she was worried about a stress fracture, so we did an xray, which did NOT show a stress fracture - instead it showed a piece of bone where one does not belong, which she said is indicative not of a bone problem, but of a tendon/ligament problem, where there may have been stress or strain that was enough to ( Read more... )

Can barely walk. Finding my crutches when I get home. Tried to find my cane this morning, figured I'd need help later, but it was cleaned up and god knows where it is now, cause you know, I'm a slob and can't be trusted to put my own stuff away ( Read more... )

OK...brother can do quite a bit of that stuff on the car, he does it on his.  He'll even teach Ty as he goes.  That's a little better.

Foot is getting almost non-walkable - got stuck on the stairs just now - almost sat on my ass and went up backwards sitting down.  SO weird, it does not hurt IN THE LEAST with any maniupuation, I can poke and prod ( Read more... )

Dropped Audi off, got a ride from the dealership to work, will twist someone's arm to drive me back when it's ready. Roads just from one side of the highway to the other were HORRIBLE. Wonder if they're going to send the kids home early ( Read more... )

Ultrasound Tuesday 3/3 10:30am.

Ankle - intense pain in my bad AT all weekend. Pushing it too much. Need to let things calm down maybe? Or ice, stretch and keep pushing thru? Swelling only slight in tendon, keep an eye on it.
