For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Hello lady-j and marval. Thanks for your concern. I am all right as long as I don't try to move about too much. Getting up from my bed or chair is very difficult, grunting and groaning all the time. Not much good with pain!! My daughter came today to take me to weight watchers, but it was very difficult. She had to put my shoes on for me because for some reason bending seems to drag my ribs down, very painful. The doctor has given me some very strong pain killers and they do work, I'm glad to say. I am ignoring any housework for the time being I shall have to catch up with it later on. Doc also said it would get worse before it gets better - Urgh!! - don't think much of that - and it will probably be about six weeks before it goes completely. However, when I feel really depressed I think of all the other people with far worse than I have so I shall have to shut up and get on with it. However, wish you did live near because I could do with a bit of cossetting and you would wish you didn't because I would take advantage of you and you would get fed up with me!! Never mind, a visit to AB and the jokes section and Chatterbank always cheers me up.
thank you getting back to us and letting us know how you are. no, i don't think you would take advantage of any of us if only we could help. i only suggested that you might find it easier to sleep upright because then you would not be putting any stress on your upper body getting into an upright position. i know i found it much easier when i hurt my arm.

glad to know your daughter is around to help. is there anyone else who can do odd jobs for you? or keep you company on a cheering up front?

I will try propping myself up with pillows tonight lady-j. As you say, it might help, especially with getting out of bed - and into it is quite difficult too. But like all things, it will pass. In the meantime it is very nice to know I have such support from you all. It has made me feel better right away.
