Fall last week out of car πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’«

sooo I think I did serious damage to my knee and down to ankle. I am in so much pain I want to knock myself out!!! I thought it was just a sprain so instead of being smart and having it checked out I waited a week πŸ˜³πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’«. Never. Ever. Wait !!! Be safe. Seeing primary doc today. I think I might have pneumonia as well and possibly a reaction to the venetoclax 😫😫😫. My lower "back" sides are getting sore. Last time Stony Brook doc immediately took me off of voraconizole when I had the sore sides. Maybe it wasn't really that .....maybe it was the venetoclax. Also raised my venetoclax dose to 200mg/day. My picc line has had no blood return the last two times (2 weeks) πŸ™„πŸ«€. Prob time to take it out. I had first in the right arm for about. 5 months. Then they couldn't get it in right arm again so put it in left arm for 6 months. Can they put it back in the right arm again ? I don't want a port. Nope. Ohh my poor knee😭😭😭 it hurts so much......

So sorry, hopefully it’s just a bad sprain and nothing more serious. I am almost at the end of my 2 year treatment with Venetoclax and have had right side back pain for for most of it. I had a scan, several blood tests and everything came back fine. According my doctor muscle and joint pain is a fairly common side effect. It’s bearable but I will be happy to stop the Venetoclax next month.

Oh Kerry! Now everything is mounting up again! That car accident was certainly really bad luck!!! Hope they can help you today with xray and maybe plaster. Sometimes sprain takes very long time too. God knows you are just being in far too much pain right now. I dont know anything about piccline. Mine is there since four months and I just thank God every time it works on my twice a week blood work. It is really a blessing. So now they have to get your blood work through needles?

Oh dear, Kerry, what lousy luck. All fingers and toes crossed that it’s just a sprain. 🌷
