Haha.

I have a sprained ankle. My left one. Got it from playing basketball.

I do the interventions that a student nurse knows. They. Are. Not. Working.

I call Camille up. I vent. We laugh. I exaggerate. I whine. I do everything quite on the verge of tears. We laugh again. We talk.

Pain goes away. And we laugh again.

I hangup.

Pain returns.

Wuuuh.

Cold before 24 hrs, hot afterwards . . . or is that 48 hrs? I presume you know since you're a student nurse

Rx,

rest your ankle.
apply ice for the first 48 hours.
apply bandage around the ankle.
elevate it when resting.

you should feel better in no time.

oh, and Mefenamic acid 500mg q4hrs prn for pain. that should do the trick.

Lecturers and Clinical instructors (the wise ones) always tell us nurses, that too often we always know what to do (interventions) to our patients and other people, but if we are the ones who are sick, nothing works.

You play basketball? Wow. I admire you. I can't even shoot...someday, that will be my mission. To shoot like Kobe Bryant. ;)

@dessa_pinkangel -

Yes, but I didn't finish book one because I needed to attend to other things. Not a very big fan of Edward, I lean more towards Carlisle instead :)
