Swelling is going down in the calf area, but still there in the ankle. However, my bad leg is now about 1 inch less in circumference/girth (hee hee i said girth!) than my good leg (muscle wasteage) and is visibly different.
Also, have been doing mostly upper body stuff, and for the 1st time in about 3 years swimming (GOD it is BORING...but quite nice in the outdoor Lido we have in Cheltenham) I am getting arms like popeye...a gug gug gug.
Dont expect a huge amount will come of the appointment, as what I need to get done is a bone scan, so hope *crosses fingers* that is what is the ultiamte outcome, and it can be done quickly.
Booked in for an MRI on Tuesday, and bone scan if that is necessary.
Suggested i need to use crutches less to combat RSD.
Also commented that i have some muscle/ligament issues (although i think he might be wrong as there was no pain etc BEFORE i went on crutches/non weight bearing)
Im gonna have to take my piercings out! (need to find out how to do that.....anyone wanna help???!)
Press the bally fingummy with your thumbs and push. Oh and be ready to grope about on your hands and knees for hours to find the ball..... oh too late, you're doing that already.
Never seen the appeal of getting nips pierced. I have 14 manmade holes in me so I'm no stranger to piercing but I draw the line at the nips oooh ouch. I guess that's cos I'm a girlie.
...er look at your 3rd finger on your left hand....
So that's a rebuff then?
I shall have to send a single girl round!
yes please!!!
...as it happens if you could send the girl round from ultracas' gucr2008 pics that would be great.
Just heard I 'do need to have the bone scan' and that consultant would rather wait for the MRI report before speaking to me. Not sure what (if anything) that means.
Scan is 1215 on tuesday....ho hum.
At least it is sunny and warm and i can cycle in this!
Cheers slugsta. Foot/leg feels 95% normal now...which is nice, but I need to remind myself not to do things like skip, or play hop-scotch or leap buildings in a single bound.
Still a bit achy and tender in places, but nothing major at all.
Comments
...the first one was a bit tender, but they quickly did the second as I went 'a bit grey'...then had a lie down!
If I have an MRI i will have to take them out.
You've still not said where they are.... I think I can guess as you have two and they dont get taken out very often.... but I could be wrong.
Good luck for tomorrow matey
Nick has pierced nipples?
aw thanks peeps.
Indeed I do LB!

Poor eyesight is an advantage also

Hope less crutch use helps the pain.
How is it feeling today?

Glad it is feeling more normal.
