Update on My Leg

My right leg, which I injured on Valentine's Day, seems to be improving. I stayed out of work on Wednesday and after a day spent with my leg propped up, I thought I could make it to work on Thursday. That was not the best decision. I made it through the day but I was worn out, sore, and cranky by 5p. With diligent care on Tuesday night and Wednesday I had managed to avoid swelling. By 4:30p yesterday my ankle was visibly bloated and the pain extended from my big toe all the way up to my butt.

Even with all that, I am walking better than I was on Tuesday. Since my leg is improving, I stuck with my decision not to go to the doctor. I stayed home today to get the swelling back down. Hopefully, everything will be back to normal by Monday.
