Sprain Ankle....Again

Was trying to get to work early today so i can have more time to get familiarized with the morning rituals i have to perform. But as if it is a curse, I sprain my ankle while running for the bus! As I did at the end of the first month of my previous contract. Its like a curse!

The pain was immense! I had to flung my bag off just to prevent myself from falling face front into the concrete pathment *drama* . And after regaining my balance, the only thing i could do was to sit down by the curb... cold sweat flushed down my face as I feel the blood DRAINED from my face... and words fail me. I tried to stand, but my right foot just gave way to my weight. I was completely helpless. After 5 minutes, I manage to start limping toward the bus stop. By the time i got to the bus stop, i was exhausted. Blood was still drained from my face, and pain overwhelming. Not long another bus came and I was on my way to work.

I usually cant sleep on the way to work, but maybe its because of the pain, i was exhausted and slept all the way to work. But when i alight the bus, what used to be a 5 minutes stroll to the office... turned out to become a 20 minutes struggle... with a few stops now and then to take deep breaths.

The whole day was horrible. I could barely walk. Fortunately, my boss also agrees that i should go get my foot attended to. So i got off at 330 to go to the polyclinic for xray.

The ordeal at the polyclinic was another thing. To keep things short, I think the doc didnt appreciate me asking if I could take an xray first since the xray department was closing.. so I feel she could have delibrately NOT allow me to take xray and asked me to come back again if it doesnt recover... THEN, take the xray.... i fail to see the logic.

The whole purpose for me to get xray taken is so that to make sure there is no hairline fracture. IF so, i could safely get my foot attended to by a chinese sinsei. But since i could not be sure, i tot i would just go to a sinsei and get some chinese medicine applied onto my hurting ankle. Especially since i can feel my foot either becoming more numb... or just beginning to feel better, as it seem to be able to hold more of my weight already.

Thats where my SECOND ordeal came. Without asking me what happened and examining my ankle, the sinsei gave my ankle a quick SNAP! ( literally the sound i heard ) I could have sworn my ankle was dislocated at that point in time, and while holding back the yell of pain, look around the floor to see where my ankle flown to -_-"

And there you have it. Just when i tot it was getting better, the sinsei snapped the daylights out of me. Now I am back once again to the same state as i was this morning. Blood is no longer drained from my face, but I am once again unable to apply pressure on my foot. I have problem even walking to the toilet to brush my teeth...... sigh... is this another one of those divine plans god has installed for me? No idea... but i sure hope its worth it. After suffering SOOoo much pain. I really hope its worth it...
