So, I went to the dr. today and got another tetanus shot plus some antibiotics. Most doctors offices don't like walk-ins but since this was an animal bite/claw, I got in during the lunch hour. He took one look at my calf and said "Wow, you really got nailed didn't you?". Kind-of impressive when you can get a dr. to say that, heh heh. [I have a vague memory of someone else posting that they had to go to the ER, and the ER dr. said "Ewwwww... gross." Yeah, that kind of thing is weirdly cool I guess.] I feel ok although my left forearm (just about an inch below the wrist) is tender. Oddly enough, my knee and calf don't seem to hurt at all. Minor swelling and mega-impressive bruising -- I wish I could take pictures and post them, lol. I'll wait and see what happens by Monday though and give the meds a chance to work.

Ouchie! Drink plenty of fluids okay, the antibiotics screw up the system.

By fluids of course I mean non alcoholic!

Heh, not to worry I'm drinking plenty of water. I'm still plenty sore though. *hugs*

Yeah, see what happens when you aren't online? ;)

Though I logged off really early last night; I was a little tired from all of the stress or something.
