Luckily, not my rotator cuff...ouch!
With so much covid talk these days, we really haven't been hearing much about our weather problems, we certainly need the rain here too...
Sometimes us females have to do things for ourselves. Plus, we enjoy some of those things, like you said.
Not humorous whatsoever. PT meaning, physiotherapy? That’s smart. When I went to get X-rays at the hospital, the doctor said I should get physiotherapy and I didn’t. It something I regret. Good luck with your injury and operation.
Thank you.
Major drought here
I consult Dr. Google. Yup, he agrees, a blood clot. Wake husband up, who is taking HIS afternoon nap, and tell him we have to go to the instant care. I may have a blood clot and it is nothing to mess around with.
. This can not be good. I have never had a doctor call me at the hospital, in the hospital room to give me results.
. Well, definitely not taking a trip to Texas anytime soon. So, hurry up and wait to see if it’s nothing or if I have cancer in my leg. Lovely. 
So sorry for what you're dealing with.......as if you didn't half enough already.Today I did this, did that and finally decided to take an afternoon nap. My leg has been hurting for a couple days, I started getting sharp pain in the middle of the front of my lower leg plus the calf that’s been hurting.
I sit up, reach down to rub the spot, and feel a bump.
See the doctor, who also thinks it is a DVT. I have to go to the hospital for an ultrasound. Off I go to the ER, tell them I need to check in as an outpatient, and get the test. All goes well. I am having the ultrasound when the tech says “there are two”. Hmm, two blood clots?
Two spots, a smaller one under the larger one. Can you have two blood clots? Cause I Think they are blood clots. Yes she says but I do not know what it is, but there is a smaller spot. Ok. Finishes the test, goes and sees the vascular doctor on call, and tells me he will get the results, and call the doctor at the instance care, and she will call me at the hospital, so answer the phone when it rings.
I get the call. She does not want to talk about the large swelling I felt, none of them mention it, even though I ask. They want to talk about the small soft tissue solid spot that they found. Not good. Not a blood clot, not a fatty tumor, not a cyst, not an infection, not anything that they can put a name to and tell me what it is.
I hit the nail on the head, and ask “Is it cancer?”, she replies I can only tell you what it is not. I want to wait till the official report is done. I will call you later. She just called. The report is not done yet, she will call me tomorrow when it posts. Meanwhile call my doctor in the morning. Get an appointment to see her. Any changes, at all, come back to the clinic right away.
You are going to need a CT scan and probably an MRI as soon as possible.
I say to my husband “where’s that package of gummy bears I gave you?” I eat the gummies. Then I eat a shortbread Easter cookie, (got them for my son), and a roll with butter for dinner. A few of my favorite things to ease the pain in my leg and the anger in my brain at yet another medical issue that I have to deal with.
And, of course, now I am mad at myself for, once again, eating my pain and anger. I am still in pain. I am still angry. Anyway, that’s what I did today. Felt sorry for myself and overate a bunch of crap.

Most certainly, come on over.So you don't believe in sharing?I've just stopped for coffee.
..had to clean that up...
Lovely holly. Our daffodils and tulips came up, took one quick look at the cold weather and decided to wait a bit longer. On average we're about a month behind you though the wild wood anemones are starting to show their little facesFirst day of freedom for Brits in months... and it's a glorious sunny day today too... . People have been allowed to congregate at the beaches .. meet up with one other household in gardens or parks.. tennis and basketball courts have opened, and outdoor swimming pools too... ( I love swimming but there's no outdoor pools near me )
needless to say they're packed out, what with the children on Easter Holidays too... but I can't go anywhere until it all settles down. Hopefully this won't cause a 5th surge and we get closed again before the grand re-opening on the 12th.
I've been out just exercising in my garden this morning.. and I just put the washing on, . came downstairs after cleaning the upstairs inside windows only to find the stupid washer leaking all over the floor...
Tomorrow it's going to be hotter still so I'll get out and take some Spring photos from the neighbourhood..
Look at my Lilies, they've grown a 1/3rd bigger than this time last week, their now about 2 feet high ...just took this photo this afternoon
