Hurt?

.

.

The knee, ankle, and hip... in that order?  Only when I stand or sit.  No "attempt".  If I mean to do it, I do it.  Though... I may not get up whilly-nilly, as I might have.  Still, It, mostly, only hurts when I do get up, or for a shot while after getting settled.  It is still true, truer than I thought it was going to be, after first thinking it was.  My ribs hurt more, from losing so much weight so fast, yet not quite being skinny yet.  That 'tweener stage is brutal.

Now, waking, getting off the mattresses, crawling over to a bench with which to help me life up off the ground, since one knee and angle is bum, and one side can't be flexed without absolute misery?  That... hurts.  And, yet, I am guessing that is probably as good as physical therapy as I can get?  Or... won't hurt in that deepartment.  Wait, it will hurt.  But that department... does hurt.

The other problem is I am freezing.  I just can't warm up.  Then again, I can't put on layers.  Not enough flexibiltiy in the left leg, top to bottom, and hip.  Even so, it is 46 out there, which should be... nice.  For me.  I'm guessing my blood is going to the wound sites, so it's carrying heat as it might otherwise?

All good.  I'll figure something out.  A jacket for now, perhaps a second one.  And turning the furnace up.  I... might give it a serious boost.  I would almost think there is a draft, but I'd feel that.  From a window open, down here.  No, just... my body not able to use what is here to get and stay warm.

Medicine in.  Heart medicine.  BP and else was elevated.  If, too, I was pretty dinged up.  And that will raise all of that.  And I probably didn't take medicine the day before, or the afternoon/night meds for sure.  And nothing that day.  I was trying to remember why it all hurt so badly.

I am still amazed that it doesn't hurt all that much just as a general rule, and most if not all of the time.

I need to call the hospital.  They said they were sending contact information for other things.  But there is no contact information in the papers.  I did call the VA last night, and got that part sorted.  Ugh.  Now more calls.  Okay.  Later.
