Wow, I'm impressed you could do that much after a BMB! Like Karen, the most I could ever do is go home and crawl into bed with a cuppa and the tv for the rest of the day.

And as a runner, it takes me at least 4-5 days before the pain subsides enough for me to be able to run again after a BMB. Because otherwise, with every foot fall, I feel the impact in my hip bone. Owwwwwwww.

BMBs were always very painful for me, but that's during the procedure itself. Thankfully I've never had any problems afterwards like you've described here. Scary stuff!
