I just got out of the hospital, drove home lightheaded on morphine ( which didn't do a damn thing to kill the pain). But the Vicodin's starting to take the edge off. Two days ago,my right wrist started to bother me, that night, it really started to hurt. I thought in might be gout, bursitis, etc. Very little swelling but painful. I tried Capzasin and Tylonol. Last night, it went thru the roof. I've never felt pain this bad (way worse than my occasional migranes). Just a slight movement on the wrist made me yell outload. I managed to sleep a bit but at 4 a.m., I said, I gotta go. Took me an hour and a half to get dressed and into the truck. By the time I got to the hospital, my fingers were curled up and I couldn't uncurl them. Xrays, blood test an the Doc said the best thing, "It's treatable". Bacterial infection that may even be into the bones. The Vicodin's working, while I'm typing. I'll have to stay off of it late afternoon cause I have to go back at 8 for more blood tests. One handed typing's a bitch. I was really supprised the morphine didn't do shit. Hopefully, I'll be back to normal in a couple days. |
