Leg injury is in fact serious

Well it turns out that my painful left calf was in fact, potentially a partially ruptured Achilles Tendon or Cellulitis. They performed a ultrasound at the ER last night and it showed a large hematoma behind the left calf muscle. At first they thought it was a blood clot, but tests proved negative. I have no pain, I can put weight on the foot and climb stairs easily. They have me in a walking cast, and I am using crutches until I see the orthopedic surgeon today to determine my fate. I still have the smokehouse to get through. I WILL complete that. As for when I will be starting my new job, well we’ll see.
