Ow, ow, & ow
I seem to have discovered another lingering aftereffect of my surgery: A sore spot in the lining around my right lung, which shows up as amazing agony in my right chest muscles, my right shoulder, & the muscles along my right shoulder blade when I am under stress. The pain drives my heart rate & my BP upwards into insane territory, about as bad as I was before I started on my regimen of controlling them. It explains the odd pains from around New Year's Day & a couple of other times in this year. This time, it kept me awake on Saturday night, Sunday night, & a good part of last night, so I am currently tired & short-tempered. Luckily, this round with the sore spot has coincided with cloudy nights, so even if I was fine, I still wouldn't have a chance to see Comet PanSTARRS. Best shot in the DC area is looking like Thursday.
