Members IM4given Posted December 11, 2008 Members Share Posted December 11, 2008 I slipped and fell while getting out of the bathtub last night and spent the rest of the night in the ER while they took xrays of my back, shoulders, amd hips. It appears that I was badly bruised but nothing is broken. I covet your prayers that God will allow me to heal quickly from this so I can try to get back to work! I am unemployed and relying on a part-time job, but it is physically demanding and I need God's strength to keep this job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have a heating pad? That might help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members deafnva77 Posted December 12, 2008 Members Share Posted December 12, 2008 Scary. I'm glad you are alright. My hubby's grandfather slipped on a black ice and busted his head open. He had to get alot of stitches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members IM4given Posted December 12, 2008 Author Members Share Posted December 12, 2008 Yeah I know - that was the first thing I looked for - blood. I live alone and this is the third fall I have had in a year - before that it was never an issue! Once I realized I wasn't bleeding I checked to see if everything moved properly. I was having great difficulty breathing every breath was agonzing - so I thought maybe I cracked my ribs - I landed backwards across the edge of the tub. I was stepping out of the tub with wet feet and my feet went out from under me and I landed full force backwards across the tub - knocked all the wind out of me! I VERY CAREFULLY took a nice hot soak this morning and I am feeling MUCH better! I thank everyone for all of your prayers! I have a prescription for 500 mg Lortabs - but I cannot function with those things, so I am making do with ibuprophen. :Green Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
