So I had my initial doctors appointment today and this was her first reaction:

Doc: "do you have pain, numbness, or tingling in your foot at all"
me: "yes and when sitting normally it inadvertantly falls asleep for no reason"
Doc: "Oh my, that's really not a good sign"
Me: *thinking oh great that's reassuring*

Doctor then had my lay on my back while she tried various stretches, most of which hurt my bad leg like a fucking bitch and upon having me sit up exclaims

Doc: "well Dusty I have to say that I'm very worried about your back, these signs are not good, I'm giving you two prescriptions and some stretches to do, if you don't see results in 1 week, you're going to have to go have an MRI done with a 75% chance of surgery.

If you think you're having a shitty day, try being told you have a fucked up back, then get put on Soma and Vicodine and told you have to take Soma three times a day, starting first thing in the morning and then drive 45 minutes to work. For all who don't know, Soma is an intense as fuck muscle relaxer and makes me incredibly numb, much like a pain killer.

And then told you need an MRI which costs around $3000 or more and you don't have health insurance BUT WAIT IT GETS WORSE...what if your work told you they need a copy of your daploma from college and you don't have it cuz your college consists of mental challenged apes who forgot to subtract your remedial math credit before you graduated so you didn't find out you're a credit short and hence, YOU DON'T GET YOUR DAPLOMA, WHICH MEANS I DON'T GET HEALTH CARE TILL I FINISH ONE FUCKNIG MEASILY CLASS..I could take underwater smurf fucking for fucks sake just anything I haven't already done. AND THEN....YES THERE'S MORE...DEPENDING ON THE MRI RESULTS, I MAY NEED SURGERY WHICH WILL BE AT LEAST $10,000. NOT TO FUCKING MENTION I'M ALREADY $20,000 BETWEEN SCHOOL AND CAR LOANS...FUUUUUUUUCK!!!!
