Today, my knees barely want to work. They're been increasingly painful and stiff in the last couple of weeks and today, I'm getting zinged every time I move. It kept waking me up last night, despite OTC pain meds. All on top of a near-blinding headache.
Presently, I'm on both aspirin and acetaminophen, the latter only a few minutes ago. If it kicks in, great. If not, I'm back to bed and, and to doc-in-a-box later. With a history of rheumatic fever, manifesting mostly as pain in my knees, this kind of thing means I need to have an M.D. listen to my heart and make sure that critical item isn't running rough.
Is there a chance of disability retirement? Factorthat against sticking it out till normal retirement.
ReplyDeleteJust as I was wondering why your knees give you so much pain, you mention rheumatic fever. That's not to be messed with. Hope your main pump remains stable.
ReplyDeleteI hope you get a good report. Hopefully it is the weather fluctuations or something causing the flareup.
