  • We have had days and days of rain.  Finally a hot sunny summer day.
    I went out to dig up 8 bushes that are 8 years old, they are pretty big and it's back breaking labor.....for me anyway.  woo

    I hosed the base to make it easier to dig and jumped, with wet tennis shoes, onto the shovel.  A big brach drove into my shin.  Holy Crap.... the pain.  

    Do I go to urgent care and spend a $75 copay or just try and take care of it mysefl?  Can't take the pain...gotta hobble in.

    Dr. gives me 6 injections to numb around the area but doesn't wait for it to take affect before he takes a saline syringe and inserts it directly into the puncture wound.   be_sickamp;  I hadn't eaten all day, was woozy and dizzy from pain so asked if I could lie down.  LOL   He proceeded to poke, prod and dig out little pieces of dirty bark before sewing 6 stiches.


    4 bushes left in the ground, new plants can't be planted and I have to be off my leg for 2 weeks.  :(  

    Rant over.... things could be worse but still.......

  • Sorry to hear Gabby.  Also, looks like the doctor got to you quickly enough so it should be ok.
    Perhaps there could be someone with you to assist when your leg heals.

    Thanks Pacer.  I have a husband and kids who are here to help.  I should have let hubby dig out the dang bushes but when I get something in  my mind......

  • OUCH!!!

  • Whooooo, you're makin me hurt just talkin about it, especially the 'I' word. If theres  an injection to be had or given, my head turns the opposite way.
    So sorry you got hurt gabby  :(


  • OMG gabby... when you do something you really do it! I am so sorry to hear of your pain. I can practically feel it.  dizzy  kiss That was to kiss it and make it better!

  • Thanks guys. 

    I just called my son up to look at it... really look at it.... I'm so mature. cheesy It looks like ground hamburger inside and it's still bleeding, even with the stiches.

  • Ugh....poor baby!!!

    What a day to spend the nice sunny day in the hospital and I can only imagine how painful it must have been.......
    Stitches are no fun!
    I hope the pain will soon go away and the wound will heal as fast as it can. kiss

  • I was cringing when I read it.  You poor thing Gabby.  I hope it is better quickly.

    Definitely get your hubby to finish it off for you.

    blue

  • I almost passed out just reading about the digging and poking  shocked

    Just relax and spend more time here  grin

  • UPDATE:

    Well, it got infected.  Bad. sad

    I now have cellulitis 21cm long and 9cm wide.  If it spreads a cm either way... I'm in the hospital for IV antibiotics.

    Hopefully the oral antibiotic works quickly...

  • oh gabby... I hurt for you!  sad worried I hope you feel better soon.

  • Oooh that doesn't sound nice. I hope it gets better soon.

    blue

  • A ya ya ya...

    That is so horrible,Gabby but I found out that it's pretty normal for stitches get infected so hopefully antibiotic will not only heal but ease the itchiness and pains.
    Hang in there my friend! kiss

  • OUCH exclamation exclamation I'm sure the antibiotics will work.It sure doesn't sound like fun tho :'(.Gabby,hope you are all better soon exclamation kiss
  • Sorry to hear that Gabby... I wish you a speedy recovery.

  • What a horrible fluke and unexpected thing to happen on a sunny day of gardening.

    It sounds incredibly painful i hope the infection does not spread and glad you didn't break any bones. Take this time to kick your feet up and pamper yourself.

    Hope you are better very soon.

    Lips
  • Thanks all... you all are so very sweet!

    Back to Dr. tomorrow.  Now it's oozing pus and still red, tight and shiny.  be_sickamp;  I'm crossing my fingers it's not MRSA.  be_sickamp; sick be_sickamp;

  • Awww dang it to hell..........



    I hope it's not too gab.

    Lips
  • Don't say that Gabby - course its not MRSA.  I was horrified when I saw what you had written.

    I hope you get on ok at the docs. 

    blue

  • Gabby,please keep us updated!!! I know all of us here at lcb are worried for you and we are all hoping for the best.  xoxoxoxoxoxoxo!!!

  • Can't be MRSA, what led you to that thought??? Looking forward to some good news from the doc.

  • Gabby, Gabby, Gabby.  I hope u r doing better but this is a reminder to everyone to avoid manual labor and stick to online gambling.  The worse injury u get from this is having to put your index finger in a splint from clicking your mouse 2 much.

    Ahhh you too are priceless and so so witty wink!
  • sick Oh gabby, don't even say MRSA, don't think it either!  sick 
    What did the doc say today? Get well girl!  kiss Kiss to make it better!
  • I hope it won't go that far...to think otherwise is so horrible.

    I almost lost my pinkie yesterday from shutting the sliding glass door and it got stuck...lost half of finger and nail...tried so hard not to cry but couldn't help. grin
    I was thinking how painful it must been for you...
    Hang in there and please let us know how it went in the doc's office.

  • Ooooh Nan that sounds painful.  I hope your finger heals ok - I know how painful that can be.

    Where is Gabby - I hope all is well. 

    blue

  • Ouch!!! Nan,you didn't lose part of your finger..right???? How are you supposed to hold your coffee or tea cup the right way???lol! It sounds like we all need to be more careful...definitely me...I'm such a klutz laugh_out_loud!!            Hopefully it will be better soon!!!                   

  • I wonder what happened to Gabby then?  Perhaps they kept her in hospital.  I do hope she is ok as this seems to be a really nasty wound that may have gone septic.

    blue
    I'm wondering too.Hope she is ok and will let us know soon.Pretty scary stuff for sure!!
  • kiss kiss You all are so very sweet for caring!!  kiss

    It's been a long week.  Yes, Blue was right.  Started with cellulitis, staph infection and then turned Septic. 

    Percocet did NOTHING to relieve the pain.  It felt like the wound was going to expode... still does while trying to sleep.

    Dr. was feeling for a fluid pocket which she would lance if she found one.  Told her I was hoping she did to relieve the pressure until she informed me if that was the case, she would have to remove the stitches to open the wound and I would have to pack it daily.  be_sickamp; be_sickamp; be_sickamp; be_sickamp; be_sickamp; be_sickamp;  Thank God there was no fluid pocket!! 

    Who would have thought THIS could cause such problems....


  • ^^ This was taken day 2... before the infection.

  • OMG gabby! You poor thing! I could have gone all day without looking at that wound... imagine it got to looking way worse (no picture please  be_sickamp;) Get well soon please!

    katt

  • Oh lordy Gabby.  That is absolutely horrendous.  You poor thing.  I hope the pain eases soon and it heals quickly.

    blue

  • OUCH!!!
    Poor baby.
    That looks so painful...hope it will be healed soon and you will find someway to ease the pain.

  • *smooches to you*

    LOL at Katt about going all day without see the picture.  I held back from posting a more current one. *adjusting halo* smiley


  • Gabby, Gabby, Gabby.  I hope u r doing better but this is a reminder to everyone to avoid manual labor and stick to online gambling.  The worse injury u get from this is having to put your index finger in a splint from clicking your mouse 2 much.



    LOL gunny... thanks for the laugh... and advice!  smiley

    Ouch! Nan.  I hope your pinky is feeling better.  It's weird how the smallest area/injury can hurt like hell.

    I remember when I was younger, I got my thumb slammed in the hinge side of a front door.  My thumb nail fell off at Lions Counry Safari (where wild animals roam) and they didn't have a band-aid!   laugh_out_loud
  • laugh_out_loud Gabby...
    I was thinking the very same thing while I was crying with the pain...how can this small injury hurts like son of gun.:)
    I felt miserable because it was the first time hubby took both monkeys out to the city to give me a whole day off...while screaming like a maniac and called my girl and thiws is what she said on the phone..........'Mom...we just can't live you alone...every time you re alone without us, something always happens.' >:(  laugh_out_loud
  • Looks like more then a "small injury" gab. Can't imagine putting any pressure on the foot. Hope it heals quickly.

    Nan take care of them little fingers of yours. Hope you are feeling better too.

    Lips
  • I'm on the road to recovery!!!1 cheesy

    ** Happy Dance **

    The old and new bushes are staring me down but I'm afraid to touch them.....LOL

    Better wait til the stitches come out. wink

    Again.. thanks guys for being a nice support... my husband doesn't think ANY injury is a big deal.  I broke my heel once and drove myself to the ER and back home (with my left foot) once it was casted.  He's a great guy, just doesn't get riled about injuries, unless it's our kids.

  • Definitely wait until the stitches are out before you do your happy dance!

    Glad your leg is getting better Gabby and just forget about those bushes.  wink

    blue

  • Gabby,it might be time for the happy dance but STAY AWAY FROM THE BUSHES!!!!LOL!

  • gabby, I'm glad to hear you're on the mend... dance gently!

    katt

  • congrats Gabby  thumbs_up

  • DAMN IT TO HELL!  >:( :'(

    Just spent 3 1/2 hours at the Doctor for what I thought would be suture removal.

    Wound still hurts and is swollen, bleeding and oozing pus.

    Dr. x-rayed it and asked if I had been shot and have shrapnel in my leg.  Uh.. NO.  How in the hell do I have metal in my leg?!?

    He was throwing around the words.. MRSA and Necrotizing Fasciitis.  Told the nurse to disinfect the room.  dizzy sick

    He wanted to admit me... but I begged to stay at home until the cultures come back.  He let me since I can walk.  Have 2 more antibiotics.

    As it is... elevation, soaking, meds and if ANY changes... straight to the hospital.

  • Oh no Gabby - that sounds so awful. 

    I truly hope it isn't  MRSA or Necrotizing Fasciitis (had to look it up).  You take care and please keep us posted.

    blue

  • Oh Gabby, I am so sorry you have taken this turn for the worse. Keep us posted, you know we are all worried about you!

    katt

  • Gabby,you are in our thoughts. sad I'm sure you are scared and want to be at home but if there are any changes,please follow the doc's recommendation and be admitted. kiss

  • I really hope it won't go further...as it is it has been enough amount of pains and suffering.
    Wish there is something and anything I could suggest you to make the pains go away...just feeling helpless...
    Hope it will all better and over soon.
    You are in my thoughts and prayers.
