:( I was admitted 11-16-05 for a gunshot wound which broke my femur and discharged the same day about 12 hours later. Doctor said to progressively put more weight as I walk on crutches. But my leg is in major tension, I can barely bend it, the bullet wounds(2) are still seeping.

I feel as if I was rushed out of the hospital for lack of insurance. Please reply with information regarding your hospitalization times. Any doctors out there? Please advise me of appropriate treatment/hospitalization times.

Also, I am prescribed ib800 and darvocet as well as antibiotics, but I feel as if a muscle relaxer would be an appropriate treatment for the muscle tension in the surrounding tissue of the broken bone.

Please reply
