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.
Now that most of the rainwater has drained and it looks like we're in the clear, we got most of our Halloween decorations up. I generally wait until October 1st, but we needed some cheering up. I stocked up on stamps while I was out too. But now I can't wait to mail out the rest of my fun Halloween cards to the "The Snail Mail Group" . Oh well, surely they won't mind!
I also found out that Homeschool Day at the NASA Space Center in Houston is coming up in a couple of weeks. Since I now have a reliable vehicle, I'm really hoping I can take the kids. It's about 6 hours away, so I'd have to come up with some "creative accounting" to fund a 2-day trip. We'll see...
