I hate crutches
Jul. 6th, 2011 11:41 amOverall pain level after having to use crutches to get to class and around the building for one day: possibly greater than right after the accident. Last night I felt like the foot was lots better, since I could put a little weight onto it, and my arms didn't hurt that much. Waking up was NOT FUN. My arms are hurting like crazy, my foot is pissed off again, my other foot and leg are grouchy, and my armpits hurt. (Underwire is my friend, but it does not get along with crutches. Still less do backpack straps.) I guess I can be kind of proud of my abs, since they don't hurt despite the tiny-crunches nature of every forward movement with the crutches. Sheesh.
Today I am mostly rolling around in a lab chair, and for tomorrow I'm arranging a van ride to class. Hopefully this means less misery going forward.
[ETA] Oh, also Wim is awesome for driving me to and from school, putting up with my whining, and cleaning all catboxes since the accident.
