2 evenings ago I walked over to the neighbors to borrow a saw and it was just dark enough I Should HAVE HAD A FLASH LIGHT AND I didn't!!!! So as I was rounding Grants trailer I got my foot caught on something and fell chest first in the trailer hitch...yeah know the kind that roll up and down the front landing gear...YEAH! Right into my breast plate with all 150 pounds . Well, needless to say I am in a great deal of discomfort to say the least. and bruised very deeply. Taking a deep breath is painful and it hurts to walk faster than a snail. There is no sign of a brusise outwardly by there is on the inside for sure. Mom snd Grant are both *****ing aqt me to go to the ER ahhh, not! It is starting to feel better today and if it continues to improve I will be fine if not I will call my Dr.

Joy, I agree with your mom and Grant. Sounds like you might have cracked or bruised a rib. Nothing you want to play around with.

You need to go to the doctor.  We don't want anything bad happening to you.  Well anything worse than already happened!  If this was one of us writing this I bet you would tell us to go to the doctor!  O.K. enough nagging.  Take care of yourself!

Well, I called the Dr and he is one of those great guys that returns calls and this is what he said..."If there is a crack or it is bruised there really isn't much that can be done about other than pain meds of which you already have many and ice or heat, which is up to me depends on what feels best". And if it isn't feel a like better by Monday then give him a call and we will x-ray it . But I trust him so I am pretty sure there is only bruising not a break.I have broken 9 bones in my life and this doesn't feel like a break...
But thank you all for your support and your nagging.
Oh and My Mom knows I won't go to our hospital up here so minimum drive 30 miles one way.
