just got back from the hospital where this time a female doctor person lady examined my toes, then called over another guy doctor person to poke at my toes too. my toes aren`t hurting like they were yesterday, but they are still swollen and hurt to walk on and move. last night my right foot, which had been treated last week, started tingling a little so i mentioned this to them as well. the female rewrapped my left foot since the dressing had atleast taken care of the pain (for now anyway), but she then examined my right foot and commented on how my toes were still kind of swollen and how the color of them looked bad... >.>;;; eheh. she mentioned circulation and i reaffirmed that my circulation in my feet is shitty and mentioned that my mom has feet circulation problems too. at this point the guy doctor was there and he wanted to know how young my mom was when the poor circulation started for her and i was like "iono. D: but probably not this young" and he laughed and was like "probably not, huh". both doctors agreed that my right toes were swollen and didnt look so great and the female doctor suggested wrapping my right foot too. D`; i voiced my dismay about that. the guy wanted to do some kind of test... i couldn`t understand the terms he used as i`m not really familiar with medical stuff, but i agreed since it didnt sound like it involved needles. i hoped.

so i was led by a nurse to another department on the second floor where i was almost immediately called back. i was asked my height and weight and i had never bothered to convert my height and weight to what non-America uses, so i was like "D`; ummm.... America.... uses a different system so ummmm..... iono" and the nurse was like "oh yeaah... ok, wait here. *runs off to get a bathroom scale and measuring tape*" :`x *uses Google to convert her non-American weight into the weight she understands* .....w00t! i`ve lost 5lbs since the last time i was weighted in America. D`; i feel like i`ve gained weight since being here......

*cough* anyway, i had to laydown on a bed with those things that are used for testing blood pressure wrapped around both of my arms and legs, plus with clamp things on my wrists and a sensor thing on my chest. TOTAL BLOOD PRESSURE CHECKINGNESS? i thought the things would snap the bones in my arms at one point. :`x but anyway, yeah.... test was done, nurse was nice, then i was sent back downstairs to the department i originally went to where after a bit of waiting i was called back to see the female doctor who went over the results of the test the best she could. she tried hard to remember some English terms and stuff, she was nice. the test results said that everything was normal... which means there still really is no explanation as to why my feet are being so evil to me, aside from poor circulation which doesnt show up in this test.

my feet just wont go back to normal. they hate me and i hate them.

*sigh*

i have to go back to the hospital again tomorrow... if my left foot looks better, that will be the last visit... hopefully for forever. i feel bad because of Otsu... i was suppose to go there today and tomorrow.... now they will have had no ALT this whole week. :`[ thurs and fri i have to bike to Ikku.... >_> my feet better improve by then. i have to call my supervisor and a JTE at Otsu to inform them of the news now. I HATE MY FEET.

hospitals, feet
