so its noon and its already been the worst day ever.
i went to the dermatologist this morning for my hand and heel.
i have calluses or warts or something.
so she put acid on them to make them heal.
i HATE doctors. i hate when u have to see like 4 different doctors for the same reason and they ALL say something different for treatment and everytime u move to a new doctor they're always like "well your last doctors were wrong" and im like "wtf??? they are all in this building, they should all say the same thing" and the doctor today who owns the office is like "well no wonder they arent getting better. they werent giving you the proper treatment." and im like "ARE YOU KIDDING ME? THEY ARE YOUR EMPLOYEES!! its fucking rediculous. my mom has to pay for these visits and i have to endure all this pain and your telling me they didnt do it right? theres no excuse for that, its the most stupid thing ive ever heard.
so she does the acid and the initial treatment doesnt hurt but then after awhile it starts to hurt and BAD. so the nurse gave me motrin but that doesnt kick in for 15 minutes and i am like dying in the doctors office it hurts so bad. i was trying to hold back tears.
so after all is said and done we get to the car and i just start bawling my eyes out cause it hurts soo bad. its excruciating. and believe me, i DO have a high tolerance for pain. and so then my mom starts crying cause she feels helpless and we drive home.
(my car is still there cause i drove down there but i couldnt drive back cause it hurt, so i went home with my mom in her car).
i was crying pretty hard the whole way home. well not home, mom had to go to work so one of the drivers brought me home.
when i got home it just hurt so bad. the doctor told me that if the pain is too much, to put the alcohol on it and it will reverse the reaction so the pain stops but it will stop the treatment and it was a last resort but i had to do it. cause i couldnt stop crying and i couldnt hold my hand still and cause i took two excedrin when i got home and NONE of the medication i took has kicked in. i was about to call like 911 or something cause i couldnt breathe.
so i decided to put the alcohol on and it wasnt working. and i got really upset and called the dermatologists office and the secretary said that there was NO ONE i could talk to. that all the medical examiners were OUT TO LUNCH, and to call back at 12:30. I could not believe that.
So i called mom and she read the paper that the doctor gave her and it said i have to use the alcholo for 15 minutes or soak my hand in cold water for 20 minutes. So by the time ive reached the point where i cant stand the pain, i have to hodl my hand still for 20 MORE minutes? thats retarded.
i tried but it hurts when i hold my hand still.
It still hurts like a bitch.
I'm probably in more pain now than you will ever be in your life.
You have no idea, you really dont.
