the_rckMy legs hurt a lot today, but the only thing I absolutely have to do today is going to pick Cordelia up from school.
The oncology appointment yesterday was pretty quick. The nurse practitioner I see is a little odd in that she wants to hug me hello and goodbye. It doesn’t bother me particularly; it just strikes me as a little weird because I’ve never had a medical professional who did that before.
Apparently Tamoxifen frequently causes muscle cramps that can result in tendinitis and also makes arthritis pain worse. The nurse practitioner said I need to stretch and massage my legs several times a day. She also said that the odd bleeding I’ve had is something that I ought to see my gynecologist about because it might be a symptom of a uterine polyp or of fibroids that will need to be dealt with. She thought that waiting until my scheduled appointment in late April might be okay, but that I should call the office and ask if they want me in sooner.
Cordelia has an appointment with the sports medicine people on Monday afternoon. Either Scott’s sister or her husband will come down to give us a ride. (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
evalerie, the appointment is too late in the day for me to ask you.) I don’t want to do a cab because it would mean Cordelia having to put her bad leg in my lap which she says is very uncomfortable.
I’m still trying to pick a prompt to work with for that pinch hit. I’ve narrowed it down to three options, two prompts in one particular fandom and one original story prompt. Weirdly, I think the fanfic prompts will take more set up/world building than the original prompt would. I’m avoiding saying which exchange I’m writing for because anyone who knows me and looks at the pinch hits list will have a pretty good idea which one I grabbed. I’m almost completely certain that my recipient doesn’t read my journal or know me from Adam, but…
