Funny how things change so quickly, I was hanging out talking about the Vikes and the next thing I know I am riding in the car doing 85 mph to the big city for the OR they have waiting for me.
I stepped on a nail on wed afternoon, no biggie at all. Thurs morn I called clinic and couldn’t get in till 2pm. My foot was hurting more than it should have and was swelling. Still wasn’t too worried but thinking I needed antibiotics or something. She came in, looked at it, asked what time I did it, and left. Seemed odd I have never seen her be rude at all. She comes back in 3 minutes later and says they are waiting for you at the big city ER (70 miles away) and they will hold an OR for me as soon as one is open. I’m pretty sure my mouth was hanging open.
I had to pick up my husband at work so he could take me, and they literally were waiting for me when I got there. I said my name and rushed me back. I was in the OR within 30 minutes of getting to the ER. I am still in the hospital, hoping to be able to be discharged tomorrow, Sunday. They are still growing whatever is in my foot so they can send me home with the most effective antibiotics. For now I am on broad spectrum IV antibiotics. The TV stinks so I am really hoping to be home for Mondays game.
I didn’t think you were waiting around on the thread for me but it seemed to me I kinda left unexpectedly. And if it the message seems disjointed, I am on good pain meds so sorry.
