more ankle issues.

[dancingleaf]

finished my Rx yest.

guess what? my ankle is all puffy & swollen today.


Do you think it's the fact that the Rx is finished or that I drove around doing errands today rather than sitting at the computer with my ankle elevated.

Phoned my doctor. IF the pharmacy faxes them RIGHT away the receptionist thinks the doc will just renew the Rx. ....

I HOPE SO!

EDIT TO ADD: I have my Rx. Just went & picked it up. Can I tell you again how AWESOME my doctor is.

Yikes!

I think it's probably both. What else could it be? Something you ate?

[dancingleaf.livejournal.com]

Not something I ate. Only my ankle is swollen.

of course... I could have DVT...or maybe NOT!

what about gout? or is that only in the toes?

[dancingleaf.livejournal.com]

Toes are okay - until the ankle swells so much that it causes my whole foot to swell and then it moves into the smaller toes, but the big toe is generally left out of it.

am currently uploading the video. 10-15 minutes I'll post the link.

I just meant if gout can show up in ankles. I don't think it does. Our staff programmer has it in his wrists.

Aw, thanks.

Y'see, if you had a house boy who was computer savvy, you'd have that all taken care of without lifting a finger.

no idea about gout & wiki wasn't extremely helpful.

video is up.

Do you think I should make a list of all the qualities/skills I require in a houseboy and post it on Kijiji or something?

house boy skills...

skilled at foot massage.

I'm guessing they didn't get through to my doctor. D@MN!
