Somehow I have managed burst a blood vessel in my left arm.  I has been swollen and bruised for over a week now.  It's tender and aches if I use my left arm too much.  I have no idea what I did to cause this.  When I went to the doctor she did tell me that the anti-inflammatories that I had been taking for  my knee could have made more susceptible to this since it helps to thin the blood.  It's bad enough that I am graceless
 and can end up with bruises from falling or hitting into things.  I really don't need help in those matters.  However, I managed to find another way to bruise myself.  It will take time for it to heal.  The swelling has gone down considerable, and the bruise has lightened up.  It's only a light shade of greenish-yellow for the most part.  It still hurts like the dickens.

On top of that, my shoulder has been hurting, but I think that is just my regular joint issues.  The pain seems to be in my neck as well, which usually indicates an on-coming migraine as well.  I have been taking muscle relaxers, which have helped, but they knock me on my ass.  I've slept almost all day.  So much for having plans to get anything done today.  I think I need to take some more and go to sleep.  I have a big day tomorrow and I don't want to have a headache for it. 

I swear that I would kill for a whole week of good health and well-being!
