10-17-23 Elbow Woes, Tales to Tell
I got a call from the Dr’s office first thing to come for an appointment at 11:30. On the way to the office I stopped at the Lab and got bloodwork done. Time to find out if I have high cholesterol or Diabetes, sigh. So far I have dodged those bullets. I was lucky to be in and out in 15 minutes without an appointment. Back at the office I got a lot done until it was time to walk over to the Dr. It was a beautiful day and I was in in no time, where he delivered the news that I had actually chipped something in my elbow. He wasn’t sure if it was calcium build up from previous ‘tennis elbow’ or bone but felt I should just rest it and let it heal. I probably shouldn’t have continued for an hour on the Segway, drove another 5000+ Km, packed bags and cooler, done yard work when I returned, BUT it was all worth it and I have a high pain tolerance. Rest is in order as I need to get a manicure due to my nails being long enough to make keying mistakes and I can’t imagine resting my elbow on the table to get it done. Dr. Wolff told me to wait and let my body tell me when to rest. All I know is it is more sore today from using it too much on Sunday…. I am going to apply some ‘Indian Medicine’ that I was gifted when I lived in Bella Bella. I totally forgot I have it but I think it is the perfect solution.
I walked and got a delicious lunch from Max’s, a ham sandwich and pea soup. Just what I needed to fuel me up for all the work.
I did accomplish a lot and took a few minutes in between to surf for couches, just for fun.
Once I got home, I made a delicious Hello Fresh meal and relaxed, tomorrow with be full again as I lucked into a single available appointment for my MRNA and Flu vaccines at 9:20 tomorrow. I still am amazed that I have not gotten sick after Vegas aside from some stomach issues which I think are mostly from holding in my gas around my travel mate, lol.
