Sep. 28th, 2006 09:30 amThe unofficial word of the day is - AARRGGHH!!
The official word will come from a doctor later on today... whenever I can get to see one.
To explain: I took a rather public & spectacular tumble on an inner city sidewalk last night, thanks mainly to a wet pavement, but also to a combination of hurry-up & not-looking-where-one's-going. Suffice to say that my left ankle is now having trouble holding me up.
And so, to take my mind off whatever I've done down there...
( Crap Shakespeare!!?? )
Update: Well, it's official, I've torn the lateral ligament in my left ankle. They sent me off for some x-rays "Just to be sure...", but assuming there's no fracture, it's all rather dull on the recovery front - just a pressure bandage, ice packs a couple of times a day & the ubiquitous anti-inflammatory tablets...
