In Between Days

Thursday.

Kev was in too much pain to go anywhere. So we had a quiet day in. Luckily we have food in for days, back up stuff in the freezer. 

I got my steps in on the treadmill. 

Friday.

No better, Kev contacted work to let them know he won't  be able to work this weekend. After which he contacted the Dr's by email to ask for an appointment. We were stunned when they rang him not long after and said he could have an appointment at 3.10pm that day! Unheard of really, shows how often he goes to the Dr! 

Before that we got on the bus to Bridgeford to get fresh stuff for the weekend. We had coffee first at Caffè Nero and then went to M&S. 

We went to the bus stop straight after as Kev couldn't walk much further. 

The buses were haywire because there was a major crash on the A52  which shut the road from one junction to the other. The buses and all other traffic was diverted through Tollerton. So it took a good while to come home. Once back he rested up before he had to go to the hub and see the Doctor. He got in to see her around 3.50 pm. I went with him to the surgery and waited for him.

The Doctor is sending him for physio and has told him to take some time off from work to give it proper rest. Being on his legs for 14 hours this weekend will do more damage. She has told him to use ibuprofen gel three times a day, do the exercises Ive shown to do for now, and only walk as much as he can manage. Which right now isn't far. Let's see if a weekend not on his legs helps.
