Saturday my right knee decided to play up a bit. 'twas becoming quite painful.
Saturday night things were bad enough to give up my bed for something more comfortable, my recliner chair.
Sunday morning I couldn't walk and, by the afternoon I was in an ambulance heading for the local A&E (that's after the two otherwise lovely young lady ambulance crew had reloaded me into their wheelchair after it fell in a pothole and tipped me out!)
A sleepless night via several passages and miniwards found me in somewhere more permanent where I was addressed and prodded by various assorted from young and pretty to tall and bearded. New pills and potions were added to my ever growing mountain of drugs along with an x-ray or two.
On the stroke of Wednesday the old failsafe was issued, albeit in smaller safer quantities - The dreaded Morphine!!!
By Thursday no-one was any the wiser, especially me. Two more trips to x-ray made sure I missed both the doctor's visits!
Tomorrow - will they be scanning my nose when the doctor comes? Will there be any clue to the problem that has so far baffled the medical minds of Sussex? Will the knee stop screaming and......
Will people please stop tripping over my foot?!!!!!
