I was shouting my grandson and grandaugter they did come i managed to get myself up by pulling on my walking stick found them and went home but i was in agony i thought i had broken something

So after they went home i phoned 111 and they sent an ambulance out

Still not right and for the past 24hrs i have had servre diorhhea constantly i can not win so back at docs in the morning.

I was very lucky i didnt break anything but i am still not right.

#@Amazingblazing 628,

Sorry to hear of your accident. Bruising can take quite a while to present its' self unfortunately and can last quite a long time. You may be experiencing the diarrhoea as a result of 'delayed shock' which can occur following a trauma such as yours, so hopefully this too will settle in time. Hopefully, your DEXA scan will be processed fairly soon for you.

Wishing you a speedy recovery.

I'm always falling,I've broken bones,I've cut myself,bruised myself all over, last week I passed out in a local shop, this is different to my mobility falls, it was pain related, everybody walked past me. Left me slumped. I was in agony and soaked in sweat prob thought I was drunk, I dont drink ever. But I was unwell ,for all they knew i could have been having a heart attack. Wasn't feeling the love that day.

That doesn't sounds comfortable at all. Fingers crossed you're feeling more like yourself soon @amazingblazing628. And hope your appointment goes well today!
