Leg rant

I've been really good about not complaining about pain in my left leg but I think I just didn't want to complain because I felt some pride in the fact that I'm not complaining. Does that make sense? Anyway, please allow me to complain. The past week or so I have been having pretty bad pain in my left leg where the plate and screws are. Last night I was limping a bit and Dustin noticed how swollen my ankle was. I'm not sure if I tweaked something but my leg hurts almost as bad as it did when I was first learning to walk after having the boot removed. I know I should go see my ortho for some x-rays but I'm really afraid that they are going to suggest getting the hardware out soon and with my test in four weeks that's the last thing I want. OR....what if they tell me I did tweak something and I need surgery ASAP? I just need to hold out a little longer so I can pass this test. Every time I get ready to test something happens. I know I risk re-injury if I wait but dammit I've been working on this test for so long and I just want to get it done.

I'm so frustrated with my body right now.
