Well firstly sorry for not blogging yesterday...
It all started Friday, yes Friday the 13th!! I felt a twinge, sharp pain in my left knee... not actually sure what I did. In fact I am not sure I did anything!
Well as a result Sunday I ended up in A&E! OMG pain!! I have no pain threshold and was in agony. Apparently I have what could be a soft tissue injury or a sprained twisted knee! Hmmm well its rather hard to see anything, I mean even finding my knee cap is a problem. Yet another reason why I have to keep shedding the weight. The nurse in A&E explained that sometimes these things just happen...hmmm just my luck!! :(
I basically have to rest, try to keep the weight off my leg ha h aaa... that is why I now have crutches. There is a little story attached to the crutches I would like to share. Well years ago I injured my ankle and needed a cast, and crutches to aid me. The nurse back then looked at me and asked what my weight was as they do have a weight limit... which not a lot of people are aware of. Now I am as I have come across this problem before! The weight limit is 21 stone and back then I was way heavier and told I was too heavy for the crutches and would had to use a zimmer frame! Eeeeek!!!
That was back then!! In A&E on Sunday the nurse did not even ask what my weight was!! Now some may think no big deal.... for me this is a break through!! I mean, well I must look under that weight not to be asked! And yes I am under that weight! It kind of touched me a bit as it probably the first time that no one has commented or judged me for my weight.
So I am not feeling so good, not sleeping so well and my damn leg hurts!! Yet another knock back, hence the heading 'what ever next'!
I may be back later... I am not sure, I cannot walk! I could update from my i pad but cannot remember how to! Aaah the amazing ability of a short term memory! hmmm So maybe for a few days things may be a bit quiet here...
Not for long though.. I need to rest to get better and then its back swimming and training. Could go swimming, it may help? But I cannot drive to get there! ha ah ah a So I will have to relax and chill until my leg heals... I am so damn impatient :(
Dont worry I am still watching what I am eating, ha that is actually really difficult and I have to rely on Han to help out a lot whilst I am having mobility issues. Things will be OK... I will hang in there...promise :)
I will check in soon....
Oh, no!
