It was Sydney's regular 3 month blood draw to check his lipid profile on his medications. I took him in to the local clinic in hopes that he could get in. When the receptionist said that lab doesn't arrive till later I said we will come back later: the last time they said they could get him in we waited 3 hours just for blood work. I don't have patients for that kind of nonsense and if the clinic opens up at 8am that means everyone should have their crap ready to go and start accepting patients then. Instead I was watching a girl look at her phone, put lipstick on, put her purse away, stand up, and pretend to do something when all she did was walk to the counter, turn around and walked back to her chair and sit down again. This is the same clinic who I originally went to to have my numbness in my arms checked out. Doc sent me to the hospital a week later to get an xray, another 2 weeks later I went in after I called to make another appointment; she said I had arthritis and to live with it as long as I could before coming back again. That is when I sought a second opinion, we have to be advocates for our own care and that is a patient right and responsibility. Next time I will take Sydney to Forrest City to the hospital lab.
Tomorrow I start physical therapy. I sure hope that they can help this catch. I got up again after laying down for only an hour. The sharp neck stabbing pain is just awful and I want to lay there and cry myself asleep again like before. I was looking up videos and found one of this guy, he said he had to lift his head off the pillow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Oh thank you Jesus, you know I needed to see that someone else had to do the same thing as me I even posted about that a few posts ago. See what he says at the 2 minute mark----this is sooooo me.(May 19th post)
Harley my 15 year old Border Collie was laying here next to me and let me tell you, this dog can fart! Long high pitched sounds like someone is pulling on the ends of a balloon. I had to turn my head and got punished with shooting pain. What is it about her that when she farts she gets up and moves? It's like the owl and the Tootsy Pop commercial........."We may never know".
