Welp, I didn’t listen to my own damn advice. Thought I could handle just a little more weight when lifting parcels or moving around.
But halfway through the route, I felt a sneeze coming on. There had been a few moments of discomfort from the chest muscles, but it turned out I wasn’t ready.
I sneezed. There was a soft pop sensation in my torso, just left of the sternum.
Oh…oh no.
Cut to a few hours later, I’m home, setting up the next doctor visit and explaining to management that I won’t be coming in, and readying a supply of cold compresses.
Gonna be a short night. Once the anti-inflammatories kick in, I’ll be unconscious.
Stay safe out there, folks.
