My leg is like Alien, more bruising to come!

Just when you thought all the bruising was going, wait there is more!!!  People think this bite is the size of a tennis ball.  Well it is, the actual bite, but what you see is as big as a bowling ball!
After having an Ultrasound yesterday and more medical advice it looks like the bleeding is still forming a ball under the skin.  This is 48mm or approx 5cm round.
I was going to have a second surgery on it yesterday to drain more fluid, but the likely hood of an infection could lead to an abcess the size of a cricket ball leaving a hole in my leg the size of a cricket ball.
Currently I am talking to reconstructive surgeons in Melbourne to find out the best action plan as it seems to be a waiting game and not many surgeons are to near and dear to knowing about horse bites.  (you think mozzie bites hurt)
I will keep you posted on the sisterhood of the travelling pantless, and this would make for a wonderful comic where I suddenly morph into 1/2 woman, 1/2 Black Caviar, ha ha. 
Looking on the bright side, it I did not have on the correct riding attire, I would have been a week away from my children with an open flesh wound! 

To give you some idea of the size, I have sized the actual bite which is yet to bruise and is still collecting blood.  The circle that has been drawn on later, (like a cricket match) shows the size of a tennis/cricket ball.

Acual name for this is liquefied haematoma.

When I say "Bite Me", I don't mean it!!!!

Obviously I have been off line for a few days, but the people following me on Facebook and Twitter would have know the story of my Horse Bite, Yes, a horse Bite.
I have been high as a kite and unable to walk and sleep and after 5 days still have no feeling in my leg.
Missing horse riding incredibly I decided to take a friend riding on the beach forgetting they are trail riding nags.  The horses I owned would never have had any vices, I have no time for rude animals.
We decided to have a chat and my horse decided to kick out at my friends horse and then a 17 hand buckskin decided to aggressively bite me instead of the horse.  I was belly aching the whole trip after letting a couple of F Bombs let loose making sure there were no children on the ride.  The ride was only 1/2 hour in with another 2 hours to go.  Everyone thought I was making a bit of a fuss, which I was.



When we arrived back at the trail ride place, I had to pull down my pant, (that must be why mum always says have you clean undies on???) and everyone understood why I was in so much pain.  I have been on codine and panadine forte and then Morphine, looking like a druggo and sleeping half the day with only being able to sleep on one side.



Today I have broken through the pain barrier, it has been drained twice and Japanese burning acupuncture.  I have been taking anything and everything to bring out the bruising and as you can see, the bruising is coming out quite well.



Moral to the story, never ask anyone to kiss your butt, because if you are not watching, those B*%&^s may BITE!!!!  ha ha, Gotta Laugh.
