Ouch!

I should have been back to work today.
I am so pissed.
Yesterday at 4am I woke up in excruciating pain in my left hip. To top that off I also got a charley horse in my calf of the same leg. I don't cry easy over pain but I almost cried and if I didn't live alone I would have been to the ER. I took my arthritis medicine and by 6am it dulled the pain a little. I went back to bed but was up again at 8am. I think I might have slept a bit but not much. I was able to get in to see the doctor in the afternoon and they took ex rays and told me that I either had a fractured hip or bursitis and they gave me a shot in the area that it hurt and told me to keep taking my arthritis medicine. I go back to see the doctor on Friday in the hope that I can go back to work on Saturday but the doctor didn't think I would be able to. We'll see.
Today, Thursday, I am still in pain when I get out of the chair but after walking around a bit it eases up.
I kept telling my doctor that I needed to get back to work and he told me that I can't walk so I am not going back! He can be such a meanie. lol
One good thing of not being able to sit very long is that I got everything dusted.

Charlie horses suck...i usually get them while i'm swimming and nearly drown...then i think what a stupid way that would be to go.
