medical disaster strikes again
Dave has always teased me that I'm a medical disaster. I'm starting to believe him. Yesterday at work I started getting severe 10/10 rib pain on my left side. Bad enough I ended my work day and walked my butt down to the ER. The second that they heard that I had a heart condition though it was EKGs, heart monitors, BP and O2 and a chest x-ray that they were concerned about. Well when that checked out ok they pushed on my ribs (which sent me through the roof) and said I had inflammation. By the time I got home I was in even worse pain. as a last resort I called a local chiropractor in search of some relief. After an examination, EMG and x-rays he discovered I'm in general a mess. "ok...FIX MY RIBS". No, he won't fix my rib until after my x-rays come back. Which don't get me wrong that saves his butt as a whole. As bad as I hurt it wouldn't surprise me if he came back and said I had a cracked rib. Regardless though I'm in misery and he won't touch me till monday at 4:30. Vicodin was the only thing that allowed me to sleep last night, at least for 6 hours cause the second it wore off I knew it. Today I feel as if I had major surgery in that spot. You know how when you wake up and your surgical spot hurts even more cause you haven't moved all night. I'm hoping now that I'm up (after sleep 14 hours...i was tired) it'll start easing off. so yeah that's my story. I'm gonna go eat some lunch then when dave gets home from work we are heading out to see Ocean's 13.
