Holy Moly
{still catching up on blips...started yesterday}
I've been having an awful time with my lower back, leg and knee. I had to stop physical therapy last week because I wasn't really making much progress. That day, I lifted something heavy and buckled my knee. I closed the doors and windows and let out a curdling scream. I later got a lump the size of a baseball on the inside of that knee..
I went to my orthopaedic surgeon today. If you've ever gotten a cortisone injection, you surely know that the more it hurts, the more the swelling in the joint. Yikes! It apparently was pretty inflamed. By the time I got home from the city (and again carried something heavier than I should - just three boxes of soup), the curdling scream returned. I took a Percocet then and one before bed. I also put ice packs on multiple parts of my body.
I did manage to sleep until 11:30 Friday morning and I am able to walk without a cane. To say the evening was a freaking blur would be the understatement of the year.
