good evening
sponge i was reading your post and immediately thought it sounded like a muscle spasm, i get that kind of thing a lot from having to lift ds2 and his wheelchair about daily ( one at a time obviously)
if you dont have any muscle relaxant type relief, such as diazepam, keep dosed up on ibuprofen and try keeping heat on the area
it must have been v scary for you, not having experienced it before
the good news chez lou is i bought a new vacuum cleaner which is bloody fantastic, i didnt realise how crap my old one was until i used this one
it has made hoovering an easy job rather than one which leaves me sweating and needing my inhaler from all the dust the old one threw back into the air, and it has no trouble picking up the dog hairs ( i used to get on my hands and knees to clean the rug in my living room with the old one)
and it was a bargain at 35 quid, down from 50
ds1 is slowly feeling less sore from his recently dislocated shoulder, an xray showed it all seemed to be back in place properly, so on tues when i take him back to the gp, she will refer him for physio to strengthen the ligaments, to try and minimise it happening again (though ime, as i have the same thing with my joints, once its gone its never the same again, but still good to try and reduce the chances of a repeat)
i emailed his head of year about it, the one who i have crossed swords with in the past, and who summoned me to a meeting when he was off with the norovirus), and her reply was surprisingly nice and understanding
she has informed his teachers about his joint problem and will be putting him in a medical register, and also said they will be putting him on the sen register for his medical needs, so if it happens again in future they will be aware and able to support him and recognise his needs
this week has not dragged as much as the last 2 either
