Because of the stupid fucking postal strike the referral letter from the doctor hasn't got to the physio yet. And probably won't for a while yet.

Turns out it's not the postal strike, it just took the secretaries til friday to type up a letter dictated as Urgent on Tuesday. Allegedly it was delivered by hand to the hospital (which is just across the road) on Friday. But somehow it still hasn't made it all the way to the physio dept.

They won't arrange an appointment until they get the letter.

So it could still mean another two fucking weeks before I even get to *see* the physio, never mind actually get anywhere.


RARR.

Also, it did finally sink in over the weekend that I really have fucked my ankle up good and proper. Yes, I do realise it has taken me four months to realise this and I have been a tad stupid over-optimistic all along about it getting better.

On the plus side, when I have been wearing the sandals with the strap across the middle, it looks like I've had corset on it when I take it off. Yay for squidgey swelling :p

How is your monday sucking?

Don't they have fax machines in Norn Iron?

Monday is sucking in no particular way, other than it being Monday and I have 4 whole days of work to endure before the weekend. :(

[hellison.livejournal.com]

Fax machines you say? I wonder...

If all else fails i will go get a copy of the letter and bring it to the hospital which is ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROAD. RARRR

[unjustjoan.livejournal.com]

Do that! Or make someone do it for you, anyway.

[adelpha.livejournal.com]

No, the ones under your bed are pretty well publicised :P

[thesme-01.livejournal.com]

Pics of your squidgey swelling pls

(I had gathered over the summer that the birdies of optimism had roosted in your brane, however I do believe that is what has enabled you to actually stay sane, avoid murderation, and generally remain hellison so don't be too hard on yourself. You're almost there. Push. PHLOP!)

[hellison.livejournal.com]

hehe i shall have to send you one of the foot with waist ;p

but yes. It did occur to me on sat. night while I was prodding the weird swelling that it is well and truly fucked. Why this didn't occur before i'm not sure, but it probably is the only thing that's kept me sane so far.
Meh.

[thesme-01.livejournal.com]

don't worriye tard and i have cheerored you up!

*MURDERATES*

What she said. Plus extra mens of the sort we both enjoy to help you through. On a barge is necessary.

[hellison.livejournal.com]

hah men. HAH

as if

*sulks*

[thesme-01.livejournal.com]

PS HAHAHAHAHAHA

[hellison.livejournal.com]

Oh you are so DEAD

[thesme-01.livejournal.com]

PS it is going to get better, don't forget

[hellison.livejournal.com]

I am starting to wonder, tbh. Stupid fucking ankle.

[thesme-01.livejournal.com]

It is, although I would talk to physio about the oedema if it doesn't reduce.

also don't forget to attach it to a rope hanging from the ceiling and don't forget to pump frantically and here is some broccoli don't forget to eat it

It IS!!

[hellison.livejournal.com]

Apparently, they will STIMULATE it with ELECTRODES to get circulation going and sort it out.

Can't wait for that. If i manage to not kick them while they put THINGS on my FOOT

[thesme-01.livejournal.com]

ohdear.

ohdearohdearohdear

In other news, an old friend is back!

[hellison.livejournal.com]

*worries*

*prepares to muderate*

[mollydot.livejournal.com]

They just tickle a bit. It'll be grand.

[hellison.livejournal.com]

Ah see the problem is I have *incredibly* ticklish feet, I can't stand people touching them and tend to lash out involuntarily. I very nearly kicked the guy putting the plastercast on before I left the hospital...

So, electrode attachment could be an interesting experience ;p

[mollydot.livejournal.com]

Ah.
I had electrodes on my upper bits (hands, shoulders), so not quite so... um... reactionary.

[hellison.livejournal.com]

Hopefully it'll be mostly top of foot and ankle, not sole of foot. It'll be fine. If I ever actually get there...

[unjustjoan.livejournal.com]

Darling, don't get down in the dumps! Just turn that frown upside down - feel free to ask me about any more problems you have!

1. monday. enough suck with no other issues!

2. the cold/sinus infection of two weeks? STILL HERE. slept most of weekend. bannot breath through dose.

3. postal strike. MFKERS.

4. prior to strike, postie has lost/stolen TWO parcels sent to my home address. or given them to weird & probably thieving neighbours without sticking a card through my door.

5. is monday. see above.

6. they just cancelled my hungarian class due to not enough people. i have been waiting SEVEN YEARS to take a hungarian class. *cries* need at least 9 people, then they will run it in january. *looks hopefully at hellison*

7. general bleh.

8. hormones say: sex! now please! universe say: ha ha. no chance! not looking like that, love. woe!

9. partial antidote: lance armstrong in the nip!

[hellison.livejournal.com]

Woe, fucking wanky post and postmen. Useless fuckers

re 8 HAH trying feeling like that while stuck IN YOUR MOTHERS HOUSE. FOR FOUR MONTHS. The only men I see these days who are over 5 and under 60 are related to me.

[thesme-01.livejournal.com]

*urgently calls back the birdies of optimism*

[hellison.livejournal.com]

The birdies have FLOWN. Far far away. Stupid fucking birdies.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_unhurt_/]

poor hellison. and naked lance armstrong isn't helping? but - i thought you liked thighs?! there's a LOT of thigh there.

p.s. they might do the ultrasound thing to your ankle! breaks up deposit-y... stuff. gets kind of hot and weird, but also feels dead good afterwards. and not tickly! (which is good, as my feet are dead sensitive too)

[hellison.livejournal.com]

Couldn't look earlier, cos f the mother being around. Am looking now and... Wow. Thighs. Yes.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_unhurt_/]

The only men I see these days who are over 5 and under 60 are related to me.

well, the only ones i see are S and A and little red and the people at my party! this is not substantively better!

but i can see how the frustration might make you feel burninatey. *snicker*

[hellison.livejournal.com]

Well no. Not much better. But you *could* go out of the house to... places that are not the house! Where there might be men that are not cow-orkers or relations ;p

[adelpha.livejournal.com]

There was the priest and the bedroom! It was Dog sending you A Sign!

[caramel-betty.livejournal.com]

My Monday is sucking in as much as my first day back at work this week was yesterday.

[hellison.livejournal.com]

Stupid mondays. Stabbing is the only way forward.

[adelpha.livejournal.com]

Don't forgetting the burninating. Pretty pretty flames...

[hellison.livejournal.com]

BURNINATE
