Dammit. What I really don't understand is, sure, I can comprehend baby steps. I can understand that s**t takes time to heal, you're older now, you're less robust, yadda-yadda, but OMG, what I was not remotely prepared for was this nonsense where suddenly, like this week, it gets horribly worse for no apparent reason. Why???
I was sitting here, earlier today (now yesterday), minding my own business and without thinking--I just lightly scritched my ribcage. You know how it is; you're not paying attention, something very slightly bugs you, and without giving it a moment's thought, you move your hand over (wherever) and you "scritch-scritch," very lightly, no real weight to it, right? Just...you'd never even notice it? You use two fingers, maybe, even.
Oh, yea, right. That was all well and good for about seven seconds and then HOLY MOTHER! This Light-saber-molten lava spill just exploded out, all over my torso. Thought I was going to die. Then, just for S&G's, of course, did it abate? It byGod did not. And it's been reminding me "Hey, Baby, I'm heeeeere..." since, for about, well...12 hours now.
sigh.
