Following advice given and used by me several weeks ago about my dating site profile, I started a conversation with a woman and it developed and we met up a couple of times. Yesterday I went to her house to pick her up to go for lunch and I asked to use her toilet, while coming down stairs, I stood on something about the third or fourth step down and tumbled down the remainder, hitting every one. As I laid on my left side, the pain in my left shoulder and elbow was horrendous, she came out the kitchen and burst out laughing. I couldn't put any weight on it and knew I'd done something that wasn't good, I eventually gritted my teeth and rolled onto my right side, pulled myself up on the bannister and as I stood upright, my left arm was just hanging and shoulder was drooped, clearly there was something wrong.
I said, "will you drive me to hospital please, I'm hurting really bad"? The reply was, "no, I cannot drive your automatic car". I said, "well will you call me an ambulance"? She replied, "you're an ambulance" and walked back into the kitchen. I thought, "you heartless cow", I managed to manouvre my left hand into my jacket pocket for support, wobbled to the car, sat for a few miutes to compose myself and drove the mile and a bit to A&E.
4 hours later, I was seen, x-rayed and after copious amounts of gas and air, the shoulder was painfully relocated, put in a sling and allowed to leave. Instead of going back to her house, I came home.
I had a very restless sleep with the pain, my fingers are tingling and I keep getting what feels like electric shocks down my arm, so I wonder if there's a nerve trapped. My phone has been ringing and pinging constantly from you know who, but I've not answered.
I've been in this situation before, when I took ill in a supermarket and my ex wouldn't drive me to the hospital which was only 400 yards away, so I walked, as I was in so much pain, I forgot to give her the car keys, so she was left trying to find a way of getting home with the shopping.
The way I'm feeling at the moment, I don't feel like even answering the phone or even sending her a text message to tell her were to go. She's not worth the time and effort as far as I'm concerned.
