Health update

It's been three days since the accident. I haven't seen a doctor, nor really felt I need to. My lower back still hurts when I move my body in some ways, but fewer positions and less pain than before, so I think it's going away.
As it recedes, it's uncovering some less-major injuries which I hadn't noticed: the side of my right upper calf (it occasionally aches and is sporting a faint but hideous dappled-yellow-and-purple bruise) and my neck, which seems to have a kink in it whenever I wake up & a few times during the day. But the regimen continues: aspirin, rest, and occasionally a heating pad (I stopped using ice after the self-diagnosis flowchart at familydoctor told me not to).

So for those of you worrying about me: 1) Aw, thanks! 2) I'm fine.

Hope the pain disappears completely!

I don't check my friends list often enough, but see, now I've added you, read your last 2 posts (in, of course, reverse order), and lo! You were not fine! Wah! and lo! you are becoming fine again. Phew. *hugs* (but gentle ones)
