Funny story
So i had an arthritis workup today. I get 'em every 3 months, and its a pretty simple procedure.
You take x-rays, then the rheumatoid doc pokes and prods your joints and then, you bend and turn the things that bend and turn. Then you sit down and talk about how you function on a daily. What hurts, when you had flare ups etc.
Well, today, lol, was a testament to how bad my arthritis CAN get. I've been kinda wailing to my docs about how my joints hurt, but not horribly. ok so its horribly but, i can usually bring my brain to another place to dull the pain, though somedays its just not...that doesn't always work, and my added problem, [bcs my shit cant be simple -eyeroll-] is that I'm also double jointed in ALL my joints. So i'm naturally bendy without really trying and so, that contributes to why I hurt liek i do. AAAAAAANyway....
everytime I've wailed about it[the pain], they were all like "there there." and that was it.
So today, its kinda chilly out and i'm hurtin, not EXCRUTIATING but, i'm hurtin.
We do the X-rays and then time comes for the poke/prod/bendy.
My joints are a calliope of cracks and groans and then, when he gets to my digits...my finger breaks, LMAO
So i broke my pinkie finger.
I think that's pretty funny.
