I am in a LOT of pain from a bad fall last night at the twins' Christmas concert.
I don't *think* that I injured my bad arm, but my left knee is 3x the size of the right, snd my left side ribs feel either badly bruised or cracked. Been up most of the night with ice packs, pain pills and Voltaren cream.
Trying to decide whether to go to the walk-in for x-rays, but it takes way too much time.
The hardest thing is hiding my pain from Mama.
I am not telling her because she freaks out.
I need to go back to using my cane for stability, I guess. In my defense, the reason I fell is that the auditorium where the concert was held has a floor that slopes suddenly & sharply 3" up, and I didn't see it, because I was looking forward & up trying to see where my daughter was saving our seats.
Later, I saw another lady trip on the same thing, and her friend caught her before she fell.It is a dangerous thing, they need signs!
Hope today is better....haha
Happy Wednesday 😊
