Kim Knits: Someone, please take me away!

Someone, please take me away!

I am so tired of this medical merry-go-round. Last night I woke with leg pain again, only this time on the right leg. Hurt in my calf, behind my knee, up my thigh, and got worse when I stood.

Sooo...lay awake for several hours and call the dr when the office opens. They want to see me right away. I go to the office, dr checks my leg and sends me for an ultrasound ASAP. And he tells me I cannot leave the hospital until I get the results.

I drive back over to Clifton Springs Hospital, register and go to radiology. The girl doing the ultrasound says "You look familiar" . We try to figure it out and I mention I worked there 20 years ago, but that she looks too young to be around then. She says "I was born in 1984". WHAT!?! I have a mere child doing my ultrasound....Holy Geez!

Anyway, she does ultrasound tells me to get dressed and wait for her. Few minutes later, she returns and says everything is normal, I can go home.

So who knows why my leg hurts? And I hate being so acutely aware of every little ache and pain. I am exhausted from being up most of the night worrying. I feel a little foolish for running to the dr but I guess better safe than sorry, huh

So I just want to run away...any suggestions on a nice location? I would prefer south of here but not too far south ;-)

I took a look at your pics and must say that your entrelac market bag looks FAR better than mine. I'll bet you used all the same brand of yarn! Really a lovely job.

I sent you an email with my thoughts on your med adventures of the day and will talk to you soon.

I used lamb's pride for both entrelac bags. Using the same brand of yarn for all the colors helps them to all felt the same, i think. :-); 11:34 PM
