Blog Long and Prosper

I have been reading my blog, and realized that I have not made a single post about my orthopedic health.
Readers of this blog may never have guessed that for the past couple of months my left leg was in a lot of pain and discomfort from foot to knee and that I had fluid build-up also. I could hear this weird grinding noise of the bone. I was and still am on pretty powerful painkillers that cause pretty powerful nausea and grogginess and make me a bit irritable and woozy.

Also, the doc said it was taking an uncharacteristically long time to heal. So I had to get another scan done also to rule out more hidden minute bone cracks and other exciting things.

However, the important thing is that the bandages et al. came off a few days back and I have now started physiotherapy and can walk again. Albeit with a little pain.

--------------------

I am very excited about the new Star Trek movie.
Spock and Kirk never looked this good.

All together now: Blog long and prosper.

With tongue firmly in cheek.

from the title, I thought this was going to be about Adsense :P

and oh, old family joke: "physiotherapy" comes from Tamil "pishuki-tirupi" since it seems all they do is squeeze some muscles and turn some limbs...

Wish you a speedy recovery :)

I have been rendered immobile myself thanks to a squash injury and have two months of physical therapy to look forward to.

Long and prosper!
