feel better.

Much appreciated.

, Question
Are you having any pain? 10/06/18

It doesn't hurt too bad right now. The meds they gave me in the
ER helped with that.



Question
Where do you hurt? 10/06/18
12:38 PM EDT



In my lower left leg, around the calf. It was getting hard to bear... I
was thinking of coming here even before I fell this morning.



How do you rate your leg pain on a scale of 1 to 10? (Clarified to Question
How would you rate your pain at its worst on a scale from 0 to 10/06/18
10?.) 12:38 PM EDT


When I got here after the fall, it was a 10 out of 10. Possibly the
worst pain I've felt. (Clarified to how I would rate my pain on a
scale at its worst.)


Question
And how is your pain now? 10/06/18
12:39 PM EDT



Without this pain medication, I'd call it very severe.



Question
How would you describe your leg pain? (Clarified to can you
10/06/18
describe your pain.)
12:39 PM EDT

,It's like a sharp, nagging feeling. Kind of like someone's been
jabbing my leg over and over again. (Clarified to what the pain is
like.)


Question
How did you hurt your leg? 10/06/18
12:40 PM EDT


I bruised up my legs in the fall, but that's not a serious injury. If
you're asking if this leg pain is from an injury, it isn't -- I've had that
for a couple days.


Question
What makes your leg pain better? (Clarified to what relieves your
10/06/18

As far as I can tell, nothing but that pain medication the ER gave
me. (Clarified to what relieves the pain.)



Question
When did the leg pain start? 10/06/18
12:41 PM EDT



The pain and swelling in my leg started about two days ago.



Question
What cause the pain and swelling two days ago? (Clarified to what
10/06/18
do you think brought on the pain?.)
12:42 PM EDT


I'm not too sure, but it could be my arthritis I suppose... but this
pain is a lot different and a lot more intense from how my arthritis
usually is. And even if it was, that doesn't explain these dizzy spells
I'm getting. (Clarified to what I think caused my pain.)

, Question
When did you start getting dizzy spells? 10/06/18
12:42 PM EDT



Before these last two weeks I never had much trouble with it, but
lately I'm dizzy whenever I stand up.



Question
Do you have a history of falls? 10/06/18
12:43 PM EDT



To be honest, I haven't been the surest on my feet lately. I've
fallen once or twice before today in the last 6 months.
