Feeling better

It seems I may be past the worst of the initial side effects. Haven't had any nausea in a few days, and I don't feel fuzzyheaded.  But Friday was ridiculous.  I spent all day in bed.  And by all day, I mean about 30 hours, only getting up a couple times for pills and peeing.  Maybe that's what I needed, because I felt much better on Saturday.  I'm hoping that I see some real benefits soon.

My friend Geekboy took me to a movie yesterday, which was really nice to get out of the house, but man, did that tire me out scooting all over the mall.  Was out of the house for about 5 hours, and felt like I had gone to the gym for a massive workout. My left leg is going to have thighs of steel by the time I recover.  I am able to put a decent amount of weight on the left foot, but it has to go on my toes. Putting any stress on the heel is still too painful.  Took a shower on Saturday and redid the bandaging. It was the first time I had seen the incision, and it looks gnarly. Lots of stitches!

Gross foot picture!!!

It's only been a week, and I am rather bored at home.  Maybe now that I can concentrate on something for more than a few minutes I can play some games.  Sitting at the computer for a decent gaming session might still be out, so I think I'll have use my laptop from the couch.  My foot starts swelling up and hurting if it isn't propped up.
