I didn't think it was such a big deal. I bumped my leg on a chair in the classroom during math. It seemed minor. That evening, it was hurting more than I thought it should, but I shrugged it off. It continued to seem to get worse. It was painful to walk. Within a couple of short days, the pain was bringing tears to my eyes. My leg was hot and ridiculously ugly. I happened to be seeing Dr. Olson, so when she asked her usual, "anything else going on", I decided to show her.

She gasped when I pulled up the leg of my pants. She went to get help from Kaci and another doctor. She immediately wanted full details. This is a much bigger deal than I wanted it to be. It seems a pretty severe infection decided to set in where I barely bumped my leg. The imuran has been stopped until further notice and she wants me to stop in daily to have it checked. I certainly won't be wearing skirts anytime soon.
