Thank you, Boyfriend (not)
He tripped me up with winding between my feet on Wednesday evening, hoping for yet more food although he had been fed not two hours earlier. I fell backwards on to the edge of my table. I had to have a home visit from the doctor today - this is unheard of for me. I have cracked two ribs apparently, to say it is agony would be an understatement. My lovely friend June (not that she doesn't have plenty to do herself with all her whippets and a useless OH who cannot stir his tea on his own) is coming daily to feed and water my chickens and let Francis D out) and came last night too to shut them up against the fox. I tried, but I could not even get down the step from my back door. My employers might get fed up with me soon. Since 2001 I have had 5 eye operations, ovarian ca operation, incisional hernia op (which has failed) While the doc was here looking at my rib injury I took the opportunity to mention the failure of my hernia op and show him the result. He said "when your back is better, come down to the surgery and I will refer you back to the surgeon." He was not able to give me a sick note for work. That is because when he phoned me this morning to establish if I could breathe and urinate he put the phone down when I was about to say..I might need a sick note for work. When he had seen me I asked him for a sick note, I can only have 5 days without one and weekends count into this. This will not be 5 day thing. So he did not have his "sick-note pad" with him. He said "you should have asked for one when I spoke to you on the phone" I said "Well, I would have done if you had not put the phone down before I had finished speaking" !! Tweesd |

That sounds very painful. Could your doctor mail you the sick note? What's an "OH"? (June's OH.) And how is Boyfriend after all this? Does he even have sense of what happened to you?

I know cracked ribs can be terribly painful. When my husband cracked a couple of his, he couldn't lie down, so he slept sitting up in a recliner, with his feet up, for a couple of weeks. I hope you have something like that you can use. Joy |

Tweesd Oh Christina, and happy new year. What a dreadful break, no pun intended. Healing purrs, and a few for your doctor to get a clue. And for your workplace to understand how valuable you are. |

I have cracked a rib before and I taped my ribcage and put on a tight sports bra for extra rib support so that I could go to work. I was articling at the time and time off wasn't an option. Very painful I know - you don't realize how much you turn and twist until you've cracked a rib. Susan M Otis and Chester |

I hope it heals quickly and that your doctor can send you the sick note. I've never cracked any ribs just my arm once when I was little and a second time as a teen. I used the cast to bonk my brother with when he teased me, and I also think mum still has that first cast stashed off somewhere. -- Christine in Laitila, Finland christal63 (at) gmail (dot) com |
