Guest guest Posted May 4, 2003 Report Share Posted May 4, 2003 you guys won't believe what my klutsy self did last night. sorry about all lower case my other arm is holding me up. i was hurrying trying to get the laundry away and get the kids baths before bed and guess i was going to quick. i lost my footing on the steps, second one from the top, and bumped all the way down, hitting every step, all the way to the ceramic tile floor at the base. talk about pain, it was awful. i managed to get myself to the couch and lay over the arm rest on the couch table but then i couldn't do anything. i couldn't stop crying, my poor kids were so scared. hubby left work and my girlfriend came to watch the kids but he wouldn't drive me to the er. by this time, i was in so much pain, that my body wouldn't stop shaking and my teeth wouldn't stop shattering. he was so scared he called an ambulance. i was sooooooooooo embarrassed. they kept saying does this or this hurt and i had to keep saying no only my butt. so ofcourse they make you lie flat on this hard hard board and strap you down. i'm so claustrophobic so my blood pressure, normaaly 90/60 jumped to 150/80. come to find, he could of driven me, nothing is broke just seriously bruised and inflammed. it looks like i have a baseball under my skin right at my tailbone. good thing hubby is off for the next three days because i can't bend down at all, or sit right, or lay....this sucks. needless to say i'm out of commission is the exercise realm this week. the doctor said it would hurt this bad for three weeks, but he doesn't know me....i hope to jump in on week 2. i can't just let everything go to waste....swimsuit season is breathing down my back. just thought i'd let you know. meaghan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
