my diary - from lardy to lovely!

i had a bit of a fall tuesday night when i was out running. an oncoming car dazzled me and i subsequently put my foot in a pothole and fell over. ive got roadrashed knees and hands and a very swollen and bruised ankle....feeling a right twit and a bit sorry for myself..still come into work today though so i reckon i deserve the medal for the day lol

ewwww H did he/she stop? Hope you're not too battered. Well done on your 3.5lb loss, definitely going in the right direction. xx
 
Are you better? Is the ankle still swollen?
 
Are you better? Is the ankle still swollen?

thanks for asking x yeah its not good to be honest and by now (ive got weak ankles and ive twisted and pulled tendons etc since i was a kiddie), the bruise and swelling has gone down but it hasnt and its still agony. im taking ibruprofen cause i thought it would help with the swelling. last time i went to a and e they said no need to come back again if you do it again cause you know what to do..ie compression, ice, etc etc which ive done...im not sure what to do whether i leave it and go to a and e but then i feel i might be wasting their time. im sat here at work and its throbbing away lol im fed up with it boo hoo lol

I hate going to a&e - they always make you feel like you shouldn't be there unless your arm is hanging off! Maybe could you try and get in with your gp for an appointment? Then if he/she tells you to go to a&e you can tell them you were sent by your doctor! Either way if you know it's not right you should get it looked at x

Awww that's not good.
If it's not getting better you should go to the GP and get it x-rayed. It might not have been broken before but this might be one time too many. xx
 
finally went to the drs who sent to the hospital for an xray and ive got a grade 3 sprain..ive had it strapped up and on paracetamol and ibruprofen and its just taken the edge off..its really painful. im feeling quite down cause im not a person to just sit, i like to be doing something and knowing i cant move,well its doing my head in!!!! losing weight vvslowly this week which is probably to do with eating last friday and hardly moving so ill have to put with whatever weightloss my body decides this thursday wont i :(

ah bugger lol
