Memories

Of past difficulties with my right leg.  Same thing.  I forgot about it until I was standing in the shower and I remembered.  Bursitis of the muscle that crosses over my hip bone.  The remedy?  Exercise. And those famous orange pills.  That was when I was first given the orange pills.

So, last night I took the orange pill and everything was good.

And today at work, when my right Croc stuck a bit on the floor, I felt my hip weaken just a bit.  So that's what has happened the last two times (when I wasn't paying attention).  My foot has stuck on the floor and I pulled against the hip muscle and it did what it does.  Hurts. And then as I keep moving it eases up and finally goes away.

The more I move the better it will be.  The Pilates exercise must have bothered that muscle when it rubbed against the hip bone.  Don't worry.  The remedy is exercise, not walking on uneven surfaces, and orange pills.  That's what my orthopedic doctor says.  It worked last time.  It will work this time.

I have strong bones.  I know. I saw the x-rays.
