Wow sounds like you need to take another trip just to rest up from the last one. Car trouble is the pits! It cost so much for everything anymore. Hope you get a great new car out of it!LOL Poor Roger was probably worried sick when he heard you were broke down.

Hope the ankle and leg get better. I know pred makes you bruise easier and so does the Imuran. I get bruises all the time and don't know how I do them. I guess it the hazards of feeling better. I will take the bruising any day over the ache of RP!

Take care and get well soon

Lots of love

,

Sorry to hear you had so much trouble on your trip.

My Husband hurt his ankle several years ago.

His lower leg and foot turned Black and blue all the way down to his toes. The ER xrayed and said nothing was broken but his pain was not getting any better. He saw an Orthopedist and found out he had a severe sprain and had to wear an inflatable cast for 6 weeks.

Please see a Doctor if you are still having trouble.

Love Ya,

SandyI didn't get to meet Sue Parks like I wanted to, darnit! Sue, I will call you. I spent most of my time with my foot packed in ice, elevated and on pain meds. It is still badly bruised, much too much for the simple fall I took. The doctor thought surely I had broken some bones and couldn't understand why I bruised so badly.....from the place where I actually hit it on the tile, which was my shin, clear down to my toes including the front and back of my leg and top and bottom of my foot. Any ideas, you guys? I'm only on 4 mgs. of Pred. Not taking any aspirin, etc. It's still badly bruised over a week later.Soooooo glad to be home, and think I just might get a new vehicle out of this deal. LOLBTW, I received a card from Heidi and she said she's ready to come home. I imagine she misses her RP buddies.
