donsprintr: It's swollen,sore, and lots of broken blood vessels on my calf and thigh, all with no known injury causing it
What about the pounding it takes from deviated shots? ;-)
If that were true Jim, I would be relieved and assured that this ailment was going to heal swiftly and not come back. Truth is, I like myself, and my pocket book enough to not beat up or smash my own body parts, computer mice, keyboards, or monitors.
I must confess though, that back in the nineties, I was angry enough to punch the windshield of my truck from the inside when I was driving. It was a solid strike, and I was sure my hand would be hurt. Well, it wasn't, but the windshield carried a nice little fist impression complete with spreading cracks, until I sheepishly brought it to my fave bodywork guru for repair.
If I recall correctly, he cut me a good price on a new shield so I didn't even attempt to claim it on my insurance. And even if I had, an adjuster could probably have looked at the damage and clearly see what had ensued.
