stepped in a deep ditch last night

Ugh and I was doing so good with my walking, up to 1.7 miles 4 times a week. After this week I was going to get cleared for my regular workouts. Then last night leaving a friends house at 10pm I had my hubby back up the car for me and as I was coming around the drivers side to get in I stepped in a very deep ditch and landed with all my weight on my left foot. This is the foot that I have the most trouble with RA in. The good news is I didn't break it, bad news is that I sprained it really bad. I was also due to return to work on Tuesday but the doc said I had to wait until Wed. I hope it heals quickly. But the doc said to baby it until it is completely better. Sigh. Please keep me in your prayers for quick healing. The pain medicine isn't working either so I will need to call back tomorrow to see if he can give me something else. Anna

Sorry to here this hope y ou get to feeling better soon. I know this is a boomer for you but hang in there and be strong. Prayers going your way.

Thanks hon, I am feeling a bit better today. I have a little more movement. Thanks for the prayers you can never get too many of those. Anna

ouchie!! That hurts just thinking about it. Well Anna, you get another day of vacation! Sorry about the pain meds -- what are you taking?? Don't rush the walking - it will come, just relax! love donna

hiyas Donna, it is a big pain that is for sure. Yes I can always use another day! I am on Hydrocodone, I think I am going to call this morning and see if he can give me something different. Yup that's my plan to just relax until I get over this. Don't want to rush is and damage my self. Anna

Aww honey, I've done that. I am a terrible klutz for someone who belly dances! I tore ligamnets in my ankle doing the same thing about 15 years ago and It hasn't been the same since. Take it easy and use lots of ice. I got 4 packs of peas in my freezer and they make the best ice packs! I got one on each butt cheek right now! LOL Jane

That is an awesome idea Jane. I will have hubby pick some up tonight. Yeah I too am a big klutz. Hubby laughs because there could be nothing lying around in the living room but one shoe and I will trip over it. Well how are you doing anyway. Having much pain? Anna

That totaly stinks! I hope that it heals soon and listen to that doc... I will be keeping you in my prayers. Cathy

Thanks Cathy, I can use all the prayers I can get right now!!! Anna

Ugh, sorry to hear that, Anna. You need to just keep your butt safe! Take it easy on yourself for a while, hehe! Get better soon, Amber
