4 am, ankle pain and questioning my ideas….

Writer's picture: Jessy Jessy

Good morning, it's 4 am, 4:53 am to be exact. Not that it really matters, I'm awake since 4 am. Which is actually better than last night where it was 1 am! 😂


My ankles, both, worse on the right side, annoy me again .... they hurt! I'm not even gonna attempt taking pain meds today, didn't work yesterday, so what's the point!?


My ankles hurt a lot, well I have split tears in the peroneus brevis, a peroneus brevis to longus transfer and a torn off ATLF! I probably have some more split tears in tendons I haven't bothered to get an MRI on since EDS diagnosis in 2014.


But what makes me mad tonight is the fact that my ankles were fine except the times I triggered pain / inflammation with certain foods. I took this warehouse temp job over 4 weeks ago, in hopes to have a set schedule instead of shifts on the ambulance. This stupid idea of mine to work in a warehouse is probably what "killed" the ankles this time. They have not stopped hurting since and increased in instability significantly ..... I'm back to at least once or twice they give out on me! But hey - I managed to save my coffee yesterday when the right ankle decided I should go down!!


Ohhh .... and I can finally share all the exciting info I teased about the other day! BUT you will have to wait till daytime when I have more of my brain awake to be sharing all the info!!!!
