The Doctor

well, today was the day i finally went to go see the doctor…

>>>Rewind<<<

since i’ve come back to Chattanooga i’ve been going through a lot physically. my back started hurting me all over again (i’ve had this problem sonce i was in high school), my shoulder is hurting (because for some reason i can only fall asleep on my right side), my stomach is bothering me, and i have this wierd headache at the back of my head. yesterday, i woke up and my heart was racing and beating so hard, my entire body was pulsating. unfortunately i had no insurance. i said had, because i now have insurance for at least the rest of this year, becaus ei turn 25 and it stops at 25.

>>>Fast forward<<<

So, today i finally got to go and see the doctor. so i tell her everything i just told you. so she gives me some stretching exersices for my back and shoulder, tells me to get icy/hot for my back and shoulder too. the gave me an EKG right there in the clinic and ran a test to measure the amount of oxygen in my blood. my pulse is a little elevated so i have to wear a heart monitor for a few days. she is also prescribing physical therapy 3 times a week for 2 weeks. she also gave me some medicine, since all i have is a muscle relaxer, which isn’t good, since it puts me to sleep and i have classes in the morning. i also have to have an MRI to check out my spine and hopefully we can finally figure out the cause of all my pain and fix it.
