Well I've had a terrible weekend
Was walking Ellis around the field Sat evening, everything nice and quiet. When he suddenly threw in a huge buck and basically i went flying
Landed very hard, was in excrutiating pain, and couldn't move at all. My legs were fine, it was my shoulder and back that weren't feeling good.
Luckily, friend was there, and called 999 straightaway. I was screaming so much the whole village must've heard me. The ambulance took half an hr, by which time OH was with me too. I was still in the same position, and my hat was digging into my forehead so badly it was bruised!
Got gas and air straight away and lots of morphine, whilst they cut off my top
and got me on a board and braced. The poor buggers had to carry my screaming body across 2 fields to the ambulance. Despite being pumped full of morphine, I was still sreaming by the time we got to hospital, and screamed all the way through A&E, then seriously screamed when they moved me onto a bed. (so loudly the nurse told me to shhhh!) It was then decided I was immune to morphine
So IV parcetamol and gas and air constantly, and I was comfortable-ish. Had shed loads of x rays done of back, neck and shoulder. Doctor comes in and says nothings broken, takes neck brace off......and gets more screaming from me
So he decides to get someone out especially to give a second opinion. Again, says no broken bones - yippee. Lots more painkillers and the ok to go home, I manage to get up, throw up and leave about 3am.
2 days later, and still in agony. Done something horrible to my shoulder and back, all swollen and still unable to move. Everything very painful, despite all the drugs they sent me home with! Think I'll have to get to GP tomorrow, and find out exactly what I've done.
Oh, and I'm still making little screaming noises on occasion
