Well, I ended up going to the ER Sunday morning, waiting 1 hour for the doctor to tell me I need an xray and I'll probably be on crutches for 2 days, another 45 minutes for someone from radiology to come a get me, then another 45 minutes for the nurse to come in, put a brace on my ankle, hand me a perscription for some pain killers, tell me it's not broken and then send me home with no explanation of what's wrong with my ankle or anything. I very much dislike it when people, especially doctors, think that because they are professionals they don't have to explain what they're doing. I'm sorry, but I want to know what's going on with my body and why it hurts and what I can do to fix it.
Anyway, I can't take the medicine because it makes me sick, so I've just been taking Tylenol quick release, and they do the job just as well. And hey, I didn't have to go to work today, because well, I work in a very small file room with not much space to maneuver around in crutches, and I'm clumsy to begin with.
So now I just have to hobble around until I'm able to walk without pain, or until I go insane from not being able to do anything, whichever comes first.
