#SoCS – Medicine

by 32 Comments

Ain’t no medicine taking away the pain tonight. Strangely, most of the pain is in my arm rather than my frozen shoulder at the moment. I dunno.

I went to the hospital tonight for my weird-assed 9pm on a Saturday appointment to get an x-ray. I had to go through the emergency department to get there. There was one person in the waiting room. At 9pm on a Saturday, in the only hospital in a city of 50,000 people. Apparently that person and me were the only ones not having fun tonight.

The good news is I got in and out of there so fast, I didn’t have to pay for parking. My car was in the lot for 18 minutes–2 minutes short of having to pay $4. Woohoo!

Man, I know how to live it up.

So I’m going to keep this short because my arm is killing me.

Have a good one, my friends.

    I hope the x ray gives some clear info to help with healing. It’s going to get better.

    I’ll add my two-cents to the hope your pain goes away soon. I’ve also been spending some time in hospitals. Par-tay!

    Ouch! It sounds like perhaps a problem with your Rotator Cuff – can be quite painful – relief comes with a cortisone shot and physical therapy.
    Wow – I think your visit sets a record for time in – time out (even doctors’ visits take longer).
    I hope you feel better soon. 🙂

    Going to hospital can be a little easier these days, but scary. I really hope that that they can sort you out soon. Pain and lack of sleep are not good, I do know.💜

    18 minutes? That has to be some sort of record, Linda. I hope the results lead them to a solution. I’m sure you’re ready to move on from being in this pain.

    I hope you have a good Sunday and a less painful week.

    Ooof, that sounds really rough. The pain in your arm could be referred pain – not that it helps with the pain, I’m sorry. I hope you get some relief soon, pain makes life so much harder.
