Feh

December 31st, 2008

Talked to the orthopedic doctor’s office. Of course doctor is out until Monday. Asst. talked to him, he said I could go get an x-ray at the ER and then come in on Monday for him to look at it, but what would the point of that be? He can just as easily x-ray it in his office on Monday, if I have to go in.

All I wanted him to say is “Pshaw – there’s no way you broke your foot right there again! You’re fine!” but what he did say was “There’s a definite possibility you’ve re-fractured that same bone, as it’s weaker now than it used to be. The intense pain you’re having isn’t a good sign.”

This year just had to kick my ass one more time before it was over, huh? And this fits in line with the Halloween and Thanksgiving Eve crises in my world. Apparently the calm and sane xmas eve I had, with no household and/or health care emergencies, was the anomaly.

For now I am trying to stay off it, keep ice on it, and hope that it’s just aggravated and not broken. It can’t be broken. I refuse to allow that possibility into my world.

    Damn, that’s really bad news. I do hope you’veonly badly bruised it, and not broken it again.

    Got to say though that you seem to be one of many people who will be glad to see that back of 2008. I’m certainly hoping that 2009 will be better.
