I got to spend my eveing at the ER. I was vacuuming the pool getting the last of the green out, I use a crate to stand on to give me a little more height. I had on flip flops and for some reason my crate went out from under me! Its not a long way down but I landed on my right arm and shoulder. I am in so much pain. They dod xrays of the upper arm but no brak Hey!!!! I am in so much pain and when  I mentioned I have the lapband they would not give me any meds for pain.  I have some liquid tylenol but iis not doing anything. If all else fails I may need to call Dr R and see if he will order something. I will call my PPC dr tomorrow and see if he can order something. I have done this many times I just did something wrong tonight. I landed hard, I was watching my 5 yr old grandson in the pool and though I would clean it and down I went and he was yelling for me and when I got up he thought I was playing a game. I was all but crying.  I also landed flat on my tummy at first I was worried about my port but I do not feel any different there. The rest of my body feels like I was run over. So I have a bad sprain!!! Lucky me! Not broke just some bad bruises tomorrow!!! One handed typing takes too long! So I will be doing more lurking for a few days to see if the pain lets up!

Oh Karen I am sorry to hear about your fall, I hope you get some pain meds soon,and take it easy and don't do to much with your arm,

      Success begins with wise choices I make,I will not let noncompliance be my mistake, The surgery I had was to assist me in changes. My compliance is for a success long range, So I will think before I decide to cheat. Remember the goals I want to meet. For this surgery is not something I was force to do It was what I wanted for a healthy life!
