*pokes arm* Ow!
So the last couple of weeks, I've been having some health issues. On monday I went to the university health services clinic, got a nurse assessment but didn't have time to wait for the doctor to see me because I had to get to class. I went back yesterday after my one and only class, and finally got to see him. I explained the whole deal again (not the last time that day) and then he tells me he wants to try to get me an appointment with a neurologist this week, and if he couldn't then I should just go to the ER so they'd see me that day. Neuro would have taken months from his end, so I called my aunt and she met me at the metro and drove me there. Bless her, she stayed with me the whole time.
So when we first got there, I waited briefly to first see a triage nurse or something, then got sent to 'inscription', then got sent to another nurse for vitals, then went to do an EKG (is that what it's called in english, yes?), then went to park my tush in the waiting room. At that time it was about 4:45pm. They called me about three hours later. But see then when they call you and put you in another place, you change into the gown and sit there for another 20-30 minutes waiting for the doc. It was freakin' cold in that room and I'm sitting there in my undies and a little gown! *thud*
Finally he came in, I explained the whole story again, he did a bit of a neuro test and such. Then he said they'd take blood and urine samples. The blood taking, Moonie was not a happy camper. The freakin' spot hurt for hours after.
So then we had to go back in the waiting room to wait for the results, so that was another nearly two hours. Finally got called back in a bit before eleven. Basically all the tests were fine, they can't really do anything there, it might leave on its own and if it gets worse then come back. They are supposed to call me back with an appointment for neuro, just to check things further and all... apparently when it comes through them it's faster... Let's hope it's not too long...
We left the hospital around 11:30... by the time I came home, took my shower (had to) and waited for my hair to be dry enough, it was about 1am. I was freakin' exhausted, I'd been going to bed around 11 for a couple days... It all sucked...
I hope this all gets better soon, 'cause this is really not pleasant... and me, I worry at anything so... yeah O:)
