Another fall.

Hi all,
My colleague and I share a taxi to work every day (paid for by our workplace), and I got out of it, tripped on the pavement and went flying!
I have hurt my left elbow, cut both hands and hurt my whole right arm.
Just thought I would let you all know. X

So, the flying handbag really did go flying.
Glad you're ok though. smile

Hope you are not too shaken up and sore after your fall FH. Many years ago, as I was getting out of a Minni I caught my foot and fell out onto the pavement. As I was almost nine months pregnant at the time it caused a bit of consternation. But all was well, thankfully.

Talking to the queen of fall here. I’ve had two corkers just recently- covered in bruises. Hope you are ok.

Thanks all. Aldom, I hate those Mini cars, I don't feel safe in them for some reason. Vickysponge hope you're ok.

You do seem to have a lot of accidents FH. Perhaps you were in a hurry so maybe slow down a little.

I was in a world of my own and tripped and only came out of it when I went flying. X

FH I think I’ve asked you before but are you aware why are you falling? I’m asking because my cousin have frequent falls but she’s in her ‘70’s. I guess you have mentioned it to your GP? x

I am just a very clumsy person, and my chronic pain doesn't help matters. X

Sorry to hear FH I’m sure your chronic pain is responsible for a lot of your problems x

It's very bad, some days I just curl up in my bed and sob. X

FH, that sounds extreme. Have you asked to be referred to a pain clinic?

I don't mean just from the pain... I sometimes do it because I feel unwell or down to but it's usually the pain. I'm going to try to manage the pain. X

Keep your chin up FH. Sending you a hug virtual hug.

Sorry to hear that RFH. Hope you're feeling better. flowers

RFH -I sympathise with you, I'm just waiting for the next one.
I asked for a bone intensity test and thank God the results were good so now I can fall with impunity smile.
