Finally fell asleep around 1 am. Woke up at 1:30 with pillow soaked with sweat. Was told this is body expunging all the synthetics left over from meds. Not fun. Slept until 8 and woke up less groggy than the last few days. That's progress. I called doctors office to tell nurse about cast getting wet. She said that if it doesn't feel wet anymore or like there are blisters forming, it isn't a problem. No idea if it's wet (where I can't get my fingers) or if blisters are forming as the whole thing hurts. Oh well, guess I'll wait it out. One thing to note, when I saw the horrible b-grade doctor on Friday, she told me I no longer needed to take aspirin. I reconfirmed with nurse today who checked with another doctor and said that is 100% wrong and I need to stay on aspirin regimen the entire time I have the cast on to reduce a risk of clot.
Took a bath today and leg really lit up afterwards. That feeling of the cast being too tight is back with a tremendous ache throughout foot and ankle. Tried a diazepam instead of a Norco and it seems to have helped a bit.
