more ankle issues

I can walk!

Well, kind of. I can limp. But without crutches! Which is highly liberating. I actually made and ate three meals today.

The only problem being my foot is very swollen. I'm not quite sure what's up with it. It's almost painful. I'm almost heading to the doctor simply because of it, not the ankle :P

well.

I went to bed at 2pm today. At 4, I woke up to use the restroom. While there, I noticed that my foot was considerably more swollen than it had been before, and in fact, my toes were turning purple.

This was the last straw. I went to the hospital.

So, I do indeed have a sprained ankle which I should not be walking on yet, and even worse, I might have a blood clot in my calf which has been causing all the pain there. This last part will not be found false until Tuesday, when I have to go in for an ultrasound on my leg.

The good news: my ankle isn't broken, I'm not pregnant (not that it was a worry, but it's always good news), and I've succeeded in putting myself back on a "regular" sleep schedule. Because ohmy, I am about to collapse.

And I got ice cream. :)

As far as money goes, they'll bill me, and I have a chance of signing up for a free medical care program. I'm unsure if I have the right paperwork for them, however, so I might not make that. Too bad, because free would be the bestest.

Was there anything else I wanted to say...... hmmm..... hmmzzzzZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzZZZZZZzzzzzzZZzzzzzzzzz...........
