Oops I fell over

mig

While out and about on my birthday I fell over,don't know why nothing seemed to give way I didn't feel woozy ,am just putting it down to uneven pathway,but heck I went with such a wallop got a lump the size of a golf ball on my elbow and a bruise and a sore hip and I felt like a right twit ( cleaned that up)it sure upset me . Mig

Oh Mig I hope you could at least blame it on a couple of birthday drinks to have made it worthwhile! Seriously, I hope you start to feel less sore very quickly - don't be upset honey, it happens, to anyone and everyone. Huge huge gentle hugs xxx

Aww Mig it must have really shaken you up..apart from all the bruises..what a shame on your birthday..not that its good on any day..but I know you had gone to your sons....it doesn't take much for me to fall these days..I do hope you are resting up..and being pampered..there wasn't by any chance any Lycra about was there... :shock: ((((())))xx

mig

No Lycra insight might not have seemed so bad and I hadn't had a single drink ( not even several ) .Mig

Oh mig, am so sorry to hear about your tumble and do hope you will be feeling a little better soon. It's so easily done. It shakes you up so much. Do rest as much as you can.

I hope your are resting up and that you are not too shaken by your fall, seems to me that quite a few of us just now are doing that

Rest up and hopefully you wont be too sore in the morning

Take care

ouch! Sounds painful. have you had it checked out?

dreamdaisy

Oh hon, that sounds nasty and it is so easily done. One small lapse in concentration can lead (literally) to our downfall. I know from bitter experience it's best, once down, just to lie there and gather one's thoughts until some equilibrium is restored, and only then start the process of getting up. Put some witch hazel on the bruise and lump, and take things easy over the next couple of days. ((((())))) DD

Ouch
Bet that hurt your pride too
I fell down the stairs in top shop,earlier this year all I was bothered about was if anyone saw me
If you had had a tipple or two you might have not hurt yourself
Take it easy

Hope you're feeling less bruised and twittish now Mig! :?
Next time you go out make sure you have a preventative drink or three first, and always carry an emergency supply of lycra
Rest up and take care.

Yup, I blame the lack of alcohol too, Numpty. In the last 8 years or so I have fallen twice and, on both occasions, was stone cold sober.

Bottoms up, mig

(My secret serious side hopes you're recovering by now.)

kentishlady

Hope you are not feeling too sore, mig. Have a restful day if you can. Take care. Beryl

mig

Things are a lot better today,I felt like a right wassok,the path we were on was right where two coach parties had just arrived to see me sprawled on the ground ,got my best jacket on as well.
If anyone gets the chance to go to Bletchley Park I highly recommend it,even grandchildren were fascinated . Mig

dibdab

Oh dear- hope that you're feeling better today. Time for a bit of pampering and self indulgence while the bruises settle.

Mig dont you worry the last time I fell a bus pulled up beside me..the driver got off to pick me up...bless I kept saying I am fine hoping he would drive away...glad you enjoyed Bletchley park my OH has been wanting to go there ..you take care xx

DebbieT

Is Bletchley Park where the code breakers were in WW2, Enigma etc? I think we'd find that fascinating but it may be too far to travel ... We're in Wiltshire.


I'm so sorry Mig. I hope ure on the mend & are feeling more ureself now!! I imagine it was quite unsettling to say the least

((((hugs)))) xxx

destiny0321

Glad you're recovering from your fall Mig. There must be something in the air in MK, I fell off my bike on Tuesday. I still don't know how it happened, I stopped where the cycle path crosses the road because there was a car coming, and just toppled over! I've stopped in the exact same place loads of times with no trouble! Still just shaken and not stirred!

dreamdaisy

Oh dear, chookgate, these things do happen out of the blue, don't they? Had you taken your stabilisers off? When I was at college I knew a lad who was a keen motorcyclist, the old types complete with side-car. One day he pulled up at some traffic lights and, forgetting he had removed the side-car for repairs, fell elegantly sideways. I hope you are not tooo bruised and yes, these things can shake us up.

Mig? How are things now? DD

mig

Goodness Chookgate hope you're alright must have been a shock,I can't even ride a bike.
I'm a lot better today not so sore but some very colourful bruises. Mig

chookgate

Thanks for your concern, appreciated. It was quite a slow motion fall, and although I bumped my head I had my helmet on, and otherwise only a minor scrape on the side of my knee. My TKR seems totally unaffected, thank goodness. I wasn't even bruised, which is a big improvement on the last time I fell off (pre TKRs). I can only conclude I must have forgotten to take my foot off the pedal -

I hope both of you recover quickly. I shall be on the lookout for new rainbows
