I slammed my arm into the point of a corner where the wall comes together trying to get to the phone.
They say if you hurt yourself you usually see stars… screw that… I saw mars and saturn. Damn that hurt!
I told Richard I was surprised the arm didn’t snap and wrap itself around the wall I hit it so hard. I’ve been being very careful with it for a week. It’s amazing how much I use my left arm even though my right is dominant. Let’s just say that elastic waist pants are a wonderful thing and leave it at that. It’s not broken… I think I bruised the bone or maybe have a tiny hairline fracture. Kind of puts a damper on exercising because I’m afraid of tripping or falling and landing on it and making it worse. Makes it hard to stick to the diet when I sit around all day watching TV resting the arm. I can do one thing and I do it slowly and it seems to help. I’ve been knitting Richard a cap… it has some screw ups but it’s pretty good for a first attempt at actually knitting something.
In other screwed up arm news.. Richard had his last OS appt thursday and was told unless he had problems it was his last visit. They did x-rays (and didn’t charge for them.. what a shock!) and told him that it was broken in a place they couldn’t have done much about anyway. Gee, nice, eh? They also told him he’d be in pain probably for another 6 months as it healed. Needless to say he was thrilled but he’s happy that he’s been cut loose from anymore appointments.
I just wish everyone would make up their damned minds. His arm was broken according to the emergency room, then the OS said he didn’t think it was broken, then he says it was broken.. good lord!
Makes my arm hurt just thinking about all of it..
