:D:D:D I love nicking your pics 🙂
I’ve cracked a couple of ribs in the past, so you have my complete sympathy.
It’s best to do those breathing exercises, I know how they hurt though XXX

Thank you Kaylz ~ I'm not good atm ~ in much pain ~ having collapsed in a heap on the kitchen floor I spent 5hrs in both Out of Hours and A&E on Friday. Had chest & shoulder x-rays ~ bloods ~ ECG ~ B/P ~ examinations and tests. To see my GP next week to have a 24hr BP monitor attached. Taking strong painkillers which have knocked me out but better this than severe pain due to bruised ribs & shoulder. xxx

Flipping heck, Wirralass, there’s nothing quite so uncomfortable as badly bruised ribs, but in a kitchen there’s far worse things that could have happened too. Any idea why it happened?

I do hope the pain killers do the trick and allow you to sleep. Sleep mends most things. You’ll be as stiff as a board tomorrow, mind. A hot shower will fix that.

All the best x

A bath with Epsom salts too is very good. That's if you can get in a bath, of course.
 
Thank you so much everyone for your kind well wishes & support 🙂
It is said that things happen in threes ~ well two have happened this year already so its everything crossed that's possible that this saying can be proved wrong in my case!!🙂
 
Oh noes, Wirralass that's terrible. :( Take it easy now, stay in bed!

8.1 @ 7.18am no lie in for me, Mum was up at the crack. 🙄

Thanks Mark ~ I feel a bath would be more soothing ~ not heard about Epsom salts in a bath tho? x

Yep. You can buy proper bath ones in most supermarkets. You need a long soak and afterwards you feel fantastic.

Could not move for more than an hour, broke 2 back ribs & punctured lung. I know ribs hurt so take it easy & no stunts. Pleased your eledest is caring for you. 😉
