Good morning everyone , I hope you are all okay and for those of you new

members who have just started their quit journey, pat yourself on the back for

still being smokefree. If your one of the many that have a little slip up and start smoking again.

Ask yourself what made you slip up , could you have changed it. There are lots of tips in our

Pinned posts and we are usually around to help. You haven’t failed as long as you

keep on trying.

.

Some of you may know last week I have been suffering. I had a fall about 2 weeks ago. I ended up with a very badly bruised leg..😒 it gradually started getting better after a few days.

Then on the start of the 2nd week My leg started hurting. It suddenly swelled up and was red and hot to touch.

So I went to the doctor, she prescribed me some antibiotics. She said it was something called

cutaneous cellulitis. Apparently a bad trauma can cause deep skinned infection but can appear a few days after any fall etc. She said It was good I had come with it as if your not careful the infection can spread very quickly around your body. It could be life threatening.

So this last week I have been on the antibiotics they seem to work almost straight away. Although I got lots of side effects. Anyway it got to last Friday evening and I thought , my leg is really hurting again. I looked and it was red and swollen. So today { Mpnday} I am off back to see the doctor. I have had all the meds so I will see what she is going to do next.

All this for tripping over a wire. Mainly because workmen were doing the kitchen and my one bedroom flat wasnt quite big enough .

So I will be coming and going here at Quit Support. Monky will be around , Hes my little hero

Helping me last week. 🙈.

Have a super day everyone. ☕☕☕☕☕🍰🍰🍰🍰🍰✖

Morning Jillygirl,

Sorry to hear that!! That sounds awful!! 😢 Hope you get to the bottom of it quickly and swiftly and you feel better soon.

Well done for keeping engaging with the medical professionals, keep bothering them until you feel at ease 💝🥰💐🤗

It’s the same for everyone on here, keep posting, whether you’re having a good day or bad day, even if you struggle to do it for you, you never know what reader you may be helping too, not just you 🤩🌟🥰

It doesn’t always feel natural reaching out for support, but for me allowing myself to do that made all the difference for this quit for me, yes I had a few to say the least and I’ve just realised I’m 1 month short of my longest ever quit!! 😮 😬🙏🏻

Hope you feel better soon Jillygirl and hope everyone else has an amazing day!! Keep posting!! NOPE 🚭🥰🙏🏻💝🤗

Didnt get to the doctors they couldnt see me for another 3 weeks, even though I explained they told me to comeback. So went down to the hospital, they said the docs were wrong not seeing me when it was an infection . Anyway glad I went as I had the doctor who dealt with infection and then another to examine the bones. By golly my leg hurt by the time they had finished. But in the long run like you said elevate my leg and she said No handstands or Cartwheels. (I wish).

so got to rest it over 3 weeks.
