Injuring body parts without suffering any kind of trauma seems to be my specialty lately. I've had pain in my my lower thumb joint as well as my knee for awhile now, yet I didn't do anything to them. No falling. No twisting. No banged in a car door. They just... started hurting. A lot.
So, finally, last night I went to the doctor. It would appear that I have tendinitis in my hand and tendinitis and bursitis in my knee. They also did an x-ray of my knee to see if I've got arthritis in there too. So, lots of Advil to help with the inflammation and ice packs three times a day.
So, I've got bursitis, tendinitis, arthritis, and sleep apnea. I told E last night, "You thought you were dating a 33-year old but I'm really a 73-year old."
*sigh*
I feel like I should change my name to Ester, start wearing a hairnet (or at least one of those plastic bonnets when it rains) and queue up the "Matlock" on the Tivo.
