So, I got a callback from my doctor today, who said that both my lower and upper spine have crazy curves in them, 17 degrees each. Humorously enough, 'they cancel each other out', meaning I'm standing up about as straight as I can, even though my spine is totally wonky.
Even more interestingly, she thinks she found the cause of my lower back pain and sort of funny gait. The reason? One of my legs is a centimeter shorter than the other. What's confusing is that doctors never realized this before.
Outside of medicine. . . 'Stella' has been officially cancelled, had to deal with some embarrassment yesterday (a classmate phoned your house, Char, and talked to your mom; I apologize on his behalf, because he sure as heck won't), am running on basically no sleep, am very concerned about my workload, and have been advised to contact and orthopaedic doctor up here due to some urgency or something. Yet, feeling fine. Ah, if only I were more vulgar, I'd share.
