It's been over a two months since I injured my foot. Again. After the "lower level" doc and the weeks of physiotherapy didn't work, I finally went to a specialist. I wish I'd gone earlier, but then that's what I always do - procrastinate, do anything to avoid a hospital visit.
Anyway, he put my leg in a cast for "a minimum of 4 weeks". Damn!!! It's been just 2 weeks so far and it's driving me crazy. Can't go anywhere, can't walk without feeling so terribly clumsy :-(
And then there is the pain....And the well-meaning questions from everyone at work. Yeah, of course I'm okay, do I look okay to you?? You don't really want to know, do you? How the pain in the leg and the one in the back somehow gang up and make life difficult? So I smile and say the usual trite stuff.
Have to take time off from work if I have to really get better. It's a new job, I haven't even been confirmed yet...But I'm doing it anyway. Sending in a formal application and hoping they'll allow me to work from home.
