Jul 2012

but for tonight, just water and tylenol pm bike should keep. I'll call the orthopod in the am, & tell him about the fall and ask if i can do more for pain control. I can bend my left knee about 15-20 degrees, but not much more. side to side motion is not possible. my elbow is pretty good, but I cant cook dinner, do dishes or clean the kitchen ( ahhh). i don't want a drink as much, so i'll be safer tonight. thanks for listening to me. This disease sucks buck time. scabs are itchy. Hugs to both of you for checking on me.
kind regards iris
