Woke up starving after 4 hrs sleep. My leg, after my fall in early March, has started to get better ... so no cane last 2 days & no pain pills last 4. Ramped up my movement with a busy few days of house cleaning and working on the pool & yard for my family's return from weekend sailing in Corpus Christi. Besides I've been unable to do physical work for a while and things were already out of hand, I was very bored, and got Spring Fever.
BUT, of course, I've overdone it. My body reacts with aches & pains (my knee is even swollen) and of course weight gain though I've worked hard & ate less because of the extra fluids in my tissues. When will I learn...gotta remember to take it slower, as one step forward and 2 steps back is so frustrating. The veins at the top of my left calf muscle ache and throb.
Get out the ice pack, take a Vicodin, and put on the TENS...Maybe I'll sleep better tonight. Tomorrow I'll try to find my clear acrylic cane so I can start using it again (it's probably hiding in the garden somewhere)and will tackle the laundry pile; sit and fold, take it easy and rest. At least I've got a couple of meals already made.
