That is some cool positive advice the Lone Crab gives. My take is that the body needs time to restore energy and wellness. It is hard but looks like accepting things you can not change. Writing about the feeling you are experiencing on bed rest could be a topic to get back writing and doing everything you are not able to do now. Hang in there. Lifting you up in prayer. ((hugs))
My feet swell sometimes. I've had DVT twice in one leg, once in the other. I'm very careful. But yesterday... there was a swollen bruise on my right leg. I pressed it to see how badly swollen. It indented more than 1/2 inch but seems to be okay today. I worry about my poor circulation, scrub my toes with a soft bristle brush, watch discoloration come and go. I probably need new arteries or veins but hey... "Heathcare" USA (enough said?). I may be better off trying something here in Thailand. But still... wish I lived in a country that had adequate patient based healthcare. Thailand and Taiwan mostly do, but I can't access it. First world systems like Europe, Canada and Australia do, but again, I can't access it.
I know I sound bitter.
Hope the knot is minor and discoloration normal. And... hopefully the doctor can come up with a plan that suits you.
As for school... I'm too old unless it's free. I learn a lot by traveling and reading articles on the internet and by talking with people about their experiences. Textbooks have limits.
My feet happen to feel just like that today. I had to go out to a doctor appointment and the post office. It didn't take much to get mine screaming in pain. btw: stepping on a Lego is the worst! You probably already know that.
After my mom & nephew moved in, my business started doing poorly. It's been a while since I've had a regular job, so I haven't had the best luck finding one. After six unsuccessful interviews, I found something interesting. Pizza Inn needed a person for Offsite Sales. I haven't worked in the food industry since my teen job at Baskin-Robbins, so I wasn't sure I'd get a second look. But it turns out, they wanted someone older, someone they can trust to carry a good bit of cash to different locations. I load the catering van with 15-30 pizzas, drive to one of the small surrounding towns, and let the people come to me. I'm having fun getting to know the repeat customers. I've even made some suggestions to improve sales. It seems to be going well. The pay is crap, but I get tips. All in all, I think I made the right choice.
