It'll take time. Push it and you'll end up making it worse.Nine days since my hit and run. Ribs and knee still hurt quite a bit.
Am feeling quite tired as its hard to get comfy to sleep.
Can't ride bike, can't even walk to far tbh.
Fed up.
Hung, drawn & quartered.
Am mostly tidying my sons bedroom today - he's away with his dad, so thought I'd bottom it while he's not here to object!Sit down in the sun, with a nice cool drink and plan a trip for when you are better. Hope you start feeling better quite soon.
Any progress with the coppers ?
Yes I went on tuesday to see my gp. She prescribed more painkillers. She said it sounds like ligament damage to my knee and possibly a cracked rib, neither need treatment but will likely take 6 weeks to recover.Have you seen the doc about your injuries? Even if you have, go and see her or him again and have them note that you are still in difficulty.
Oh boo and poo. What a shame.Yes I went on tuesday to see my gp. She prescribed more painkillers. She said it sounds like ligament damage to my knee and possibly a cracked rib, neither need treatment but will likely take 6 weeks to recover.
Me and son were meant to be having a cycling holiday in a couple of weeks, so looks like I will need to alter my plans somewhat.
Yes, I'm on the big strength cocodamol and supplementing occasionally with diclofenac. The cocodamol has had an unfortunate effect on my bowels as expected so had to do the walk of shame into Boots to buy some lactulose!Oh boo and poo. What a shame.
Has your GP given you cocodamol? Found them very helpful for sleeping with a painful shoulder. Diclofenac are good for reducing inflammation, especially if taken regularly, but there's nothing like a bit of opiate at night-time.
