In The Wars - Back This Time


I'm doing well for myself lately my ankle has been killing me ever since I've started walking without crutches because when they cast my leg, they cast it at an angle so it is constantly trying to twist inwards when I walk so now I'm having physio on that as well as my knee.

Then I go and do the full rotation on my exercise bike the other night

This morning I got out of the shower, and not a clue how I did it but somehow I think I've twisted my back. It's right between my shoulder blades and it's been agony all day - hurts to breathe and I can't even get myself up out of the chair OH wants to take me to A&E but I'm being a stubborn cow will go tomorrow afternoon if it's no better but I just can't stand sitting in A&E!

Haven't moved from my sofa all day! Oh well it's given me an opportunity to get stuck into my Harry Potter book - and got me out of doing the housework

Ouch that sounds like agony. I think you should let your OH take you to A&E. I know what you mean about the waiting but we dont want you having any more injuries chum xxx

Ooh....that sounds painful Amber if you won't go to the A & E today, there is sure to be a pharmacy open somewhere..... ask your OH to pop out to get you some extra strong painkiller......

Hope you'll feel easier soon...

Re: In The Wars - Back This Time


It's a little easier this morning, still painful but not as much as yesterday - I can actually breathe today

I'm taking the painkillers that I got from the hospital when I had my knee operation and they seem to be helping. Also got some nurofen gel which has eased it off a little.

Will take it easy today and see how I am tomorrow

Re: In The Wars - Back This Time


If your taaking the painkillers the hospital gave you after your op, then i think you already know answer is either hospital or doc! Good luck and I hope the pain eases up quickly.
