One of the worst nights I can remember.

.

.

The blankets were set up well.  Didn't matter.  I began freezing.  I made sure they were set up correctly, again, later on.  And they were.  So I turned the electric blanket on.  Which helped, until it hurt.  It became too hot.  I would put my feet out for a bit, then freeze, pull them in, then bake.  I simply could not get it right.

More, swelling.  Feet, ankle, knee... all swelling to the point of pain, on top of being too hot or too cold.  No idea why.  The window was closed.  But it is getting warmer up there, into the low to mid 60s.  It has been in the low 50s until spring has begun it's thing.  Though, too, it's the body trying to heal.  And pulling, pooling, pushing blood around to do things.

Getting into shoes was brutal this morning.  Getting up, too.  And, yes, that foot is rather swollen.  it isn't as bad as when it is holding water.  The joints are just stiff, and there is some size swelling.  Mostly it is just packed in there. The wounds on the arm and knee also hurt.  Blood is flowing strongly, trying to heal those, I guess.

Headache, and neckache, from that forehead bump, finally.  Yeah.

I will still flex the knee and ankle through the day.  Capacity has shrunk, since yesterday.  I'll keep trying.  Wow.  That hurts.

I did find the appointment coming up.  It is renal too?  But for kidneys, this time.  And is, and was, local.  I wonder why they just didn't add this procedure in there.  But, okay.  I need to get these appointments put into my phone.  And hope it doesn't update and erase these.  As it often does.

Awake just before six.  I could have gotten up before four, but I just hurt too much.  It wasn't more sleep I needed, mostly.  It was just that the pain was higher than my tolerance on this day.  Yes, painkillers today.  Not every day, but more often lately.  Not sure it even helps, but... I'll give it a go.  Later.
