Harder Day

I woke up this morning with what felt like a slightly sprained ankle, but when I began my morning walk, the ankle got better and my hip began to hurt.  It made walking pretty hard, so when Kelli was finished with a
doctor appointment that she had, I emailed Johns Hopkins because they have some warnings about leg pain and blood clots.  JH said to see my family physician, so I did.  Dr. Hemphill said that she thought it was more skeletal.  However,  I am to call tomorrow.  If the pain is still there, she may send me to have an ultrasound done of my leg.  If I get any swelling, I am to go to the ER.

My blood pressure was also pretty low today (98/60), so I was getting pretty light-headed when I was getting up.  This evening, the output from my catheter was getting more red.  I also forgot to take my antibiotic last night, so I now have a temp of 100.5.  I will probably be calling JH or my family doctor in the morning if the color is the same and if the temp goes up.
