 I'm suffering from internal bleeding
On Saturday I slipped and fell in the kitchen of my house. Originally, I thought I had just pulled a muscle because that's what it felt like. But the next day I woke up with a severely swollen leg accompanied by horrible pain, so bad that I went to the hospital. After 5 hellish hours (!!) of waiting, I get in to see a doctor. He orders multiple x-rays and an ultrasound. Thankfully, the treatment also included a healthy dose of morphine (God bless it for making the pain bearable). The tests reveal that I am bleeding inside of my knee and that's why it swelled up. I have to remain bed-ridden until better and can't move my leg, which is now wrapped in something called a "limb immobilizer."

 Re: I'm suffering from internal bleeding
Eesh. That sucks. Thankfully I've never had to deal with anything that serious. Hope you feel better sooner rather than later.

A negro will come by and take a bite of your swollen knee.

=] Thanks everyone for your wishes I'm posting using a Macbook. One thing that really sucks is that the swelling/bleeding is disrupting circulation so my foot is freaking cold all the time now.
