I did end up going to Urgent Care yesterday. My regular doc couldn't see me at all yesterday and I was in a lot of pain. I didn't figure anything was broken or anything like that. But, the one thing that did concern me was the pain in my ribs. After waiting forever at Urgent Care, I got in and the doctor said there was good news and bad news.

The good news was that nothing was broken or sprained or cracked, but that I had just wrenched everything really really badly. Because when I fell, I went forward and then twisted so that I ended up on my right side. The bad news was that while I felt bad yesterday, it was going to be worse today and tomorrow.

And she wasn't wrong about that. Today I can barely move my arms. Though the pain between my knees and hips is mostly gone (so yeah!). I've got a nice big bruised knot on my right knee and another one on my left heel (I think I caught it on the train's step when I went down).

But a certain someone stopped by on his way home to check on me yesterday and brought me a card and a cute basket with a pink cyclamen in it.

The pain is always worse a day or two later. Hope you're pampering yourself with some rest :)

Yes, it is common for the day after to be bad. Sorry about that and I hope you heal quickly.

Ahhhh! How sweet. Such a keeper!
