Sequel to my last post.
Financially I'm fine now, thanks to the generosity of some wonderful folks who were able to help, so I don't need anything more, or any signal boosting. Thank you!!!!
As for my ankle, the ace bandage seems, to my surprise, to be helping. The underlying pain is still there, but the sort of extra pain from the swelling is a lot less, which means that my ankle doesn't start to throb as soon as I lie down. I can sleep!!! Yay, sleep!
I did get another sudden fever-spike yesterday, where I was suddenly freezing and had to huddle under the blankets while my temperature rose. It worries me as those kinds of fevers have been a bad sign in the past. (This is relevant to my ankle because I still think I might actually have reactive arthritis, in which an infection triggers an autoimmune attack on a joint. I have a history of ( possibly a bit TMI )
But anyway, I'm doing a bit better physically and much better emotionally. Thank you all for your help, your kind words, and your friendship.
