BeckyBoo Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 I'm sitting on the sofa, puter on the coffee table, went to stand up and my foot slipped on middle daughters Lip balm tube thingy which, unbeknownst to me, was under the coffee table. So my foot shot forward meaning my lower shin collided with the edge of the lower shelf of the coffee table and full pelt. Such a stupid stupid little thing, but I currently am still sitting down, having to hold my breath, then try to breathe through the most excruciating pain My foot has pins and needles in it, I'm shivering, I can't tell you how much it hurts! And I have quite a good pain threshold! How daft is that? I still can't stand up! BeckyBoo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chook n Boo Mum Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 ooooo how horrid {{{{huge hugs}}}} and a large cushion to scream the pain out into!!! Shins are such painful bits to bash I know, get some arnica out for the bruises & Rescue Remedy (or a large brandy!!!) for the shock. Hope the pain goes off quickly, Sha x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeckyBoo Posted April 24, 2009 Author Share Posted April 24, 2009 I have no idea quite what I did, but I am NOT a wuss (have tattoos, piercings (not that many ) three kids etc, but now it's subsiding a bit it made me burst into tears God, what did I do? Anyway, there's not even a dent in my leg but I bet there is in the coffee table I have got some arnica somewhere, I think I'll go and look for it and then have a nice cup of tea (and maybe a choccy biccy for the shock Feeling better now, but def feel post shock, exhausted and weak, I must have whacked a nerve or something! Next time I need to deck someone in the line of duty I shall wallop them in the shin with a coffee table! BeckyBoo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going on a school trip got pushed getting on the bus and cracked my shin on the step. It cut it too. Blood everywhere. Teacher wouldnt take me to the hosp and just gave me a plaster. Now ive got a dent in my leg and a scar Saw a Dr about my knee a while ago and he saw the scar and asked about it and said with stitches id have had no scar!
