Another Pain!
It seems my life is having more ups and downs lately. Work has seen a very up week, but now, there's another pain. The pain pills the doc prescribed were doing a good job. Reduced the pain by about 90%. Then, Thursday night, I got a horrible pain in my arthritic knee. It was so bad I cried. The worst I've had since battleling MRSA a few years ago. Really don't know what happened. Don't remember twisting the knee or stepping wrong. All I know is after I took my first step going into the house, it hit hard. Almost a paralizing pain! Had to hop around the house until I got my caine. Luckily, I still had my mom's old caine. Using both of them, I could barely get around. Went to the doc Friday morning and could barely walk into the office. He checked the knee and said nothing was torn. Said I probably "wrenched" it and prescribed a stronger pain pill and told me to ice the knee. The pain's still there, but it's getting better.
On a happier note, my Mom has made her annual visit. A little late this year, but with all the rain we've had, it's her most glorious visit since I moved into the house. For those of you who don't know about her visits, when I moved into this rent house after she died, I didn't notice any flowers in the yard,,,no flower beds,,,nothing, But, one morning I noticed yellow iris's growing out of the fence line in the front yard. Mom's favorite flower was the iris and her favorite color was yellow. When I saw them, I figured that was Mom letting me know she was alright and she'd be around.
