Fall in Black Ice.

Hi all

I fall yesturday when I park my car and was about to enter my job , I did not see the black ice at all , thanks God one of my coworkers was leaving and warming his car and came out to help me if not maybe I will be there to until someone else arrive to work it was 6:50 am , I strain my knee very bad and I have a contusion in my ribs I went down and hit my back with ice , I got really scare because I was unable to breath, when the ambulance came my blood presure was very high and I was cold like ice , doctor said that my breathing problem was due to the ribs were hit very hard, xray do not show a fracture but doctor said sometimes it not show until days after, my knee is killing me the pain is steady the worst part is that I have a surgery in that knee a few years back, I am home and resting for now ,

Feel better and rest, rest, rest. A fall like that like is traumatic....glad there were people there to help you.

Take one day at a time...it will get better!!

I echo all the sentiments above. Feel better and try to relax, when your tense it makes breathing more difficult. Just try to find a peaceful place, try to be as comfortable as possible and breathe slow deep and easy.

The body is an amazing thing, I hope your feeling better quickly.
