Well I knew it had to happen sooner or later. I was helping cook for the whole community yesterday, caught my ankle on the lower cupboard door and now I reckon I bruised my bone. It turns like heck and rotation isn't working that well. I'm using ice and heat (flip flopping) but unsure about work tomorrow. A nurse comes in tmrw so i'll wabble my way down there, I know nothing is broken but something for pain management might me in order. Oh me, Oh my. when I try to do soemthing good like making 600 burgers and hot dogs it always goes astray!

Sammee, it wasn't making the 600 burgers and hot dogs that did this, it was that stupid cupboard door jumping out and attacking you! How's it feeling today. Any better? I hope so. Man it hurts when you do something like that.  Love and hugs,

Ouch, hope you feel better Samzee. Nice of you to help with those burgers, what a sweet thing to do for others.

huggs to you!  hope this doesn't put you into a flare! i took a hard fall last august, and i swear it was the precipitating event to cause me to flare. i never believed physical trauma could do that. so yes, baby it, alternating ice and heat seem to be a safe bet; contrast baths are really good for the hands and feet, if you can get that ankle deep enough into the water. otherwise, ice packs and hot compresses work too. good to see the nurse as well. hoping its just a temporary setback.

Ah, nothing Ms. Z can handle! It's ok today. I walked on it all day. The nurse said I was good to go. Ice and heat again today. The weather is putting me in more of a flair then this ankle is. Cold, Freezing, warm, Cold, freezing, warm, Snow. Warm doesn't make it up to -5 though!

Big hugs...you might want to baby it a little longer, for good measure. Watch out for the cabinet doors...sneaky devils.
