2009-08-06 10:52 PM Crazy bad mornin' ended great!! Previous Entry :: Next Entry Mood: So-So Read/Post Comments (2) Ok starte of my day...I woke up 20 minutes before my alarm was due to go off (7:00am). I had the biggest pain I have ever felt since giving birth. It litterally felt like there was a sword stuck in to my right shoulder blade and out my chest. I though maybe I was just positioned funny so I rolled over and it was worse that way. So I decided I would try to get out of bed and stretch it out....baaaaaad idea. As soon as I flipped my legs over the edge of the bed and tried to stand up I fell to my knees in excrutiating (not sure how to spell that) pain. I immediately started crying and screaming in pain and by the way I thought my daughter was across the hall in her room and my room mate was gone for the night. I thought for sure my daughter would hear me but nope didn't wake at all. I managed to pull myself up and I had to feakin pee soooo bad. I went to the bathroom and sat on the pot and it huuuurt soooo bad to sit down my back was causing a buckeling pain. Let me tell you somethin' here about me that you need to know, I do not like to go to the doctor at all because I do have insurance but it is still expensive to go so unless I feel it is extremely needed I will not go. Ok now that you know that....I decided i would have to go to the E.R. (sooo expensive). I was really afraid to drive myself and actually considered calling an ambulance....that shows you how bad it hurt. I then decided I would go wake my daughter and have her drive with me incase I needed someone cause I did not know what was wrong with me. She woke up saw me crying and in so much pain I think I scared her alot. So maybe waking her was not my best plan but I had no choice. She had to help me get some pants on cause I was in only a t-shirt. After my pants were on (unbuttoned) and a pony tail in my hair I had to walk down stairs to the front door. Ohhhh not so easy let me tell you, I wanted to just quit and call an ambulance again but while I am dying in pain my mind can't get how much money this is gunna cost me outa my head. I finally get the will power to continue and get downstairs and my room mate is asleep on the couch and wakes up to the commotion. He says whats going on and I try to tell him in the middle of my uncontrolled sobbing and I say that I can't beleive he did not hear me until I got downstairs and he says he did hear me but thought I was yelling at my daughter to wake her up. I started laughin and it hurt worse. I told him I am going to the E.R. and I will be back later. I go outside and can not even get in to my SUV so I tell my daughter to get him so that he can drive. (Yes I know I should have got him originally but I was not thinkin clearly) We are backing out of the drive way and I am calling my work to say i wont be making it in and he runs over the curb on my side of the car, I think I said every cuss word in the books along with crying uncontrollably and my work says are you ok I explained I am on the way to the E.R. I hurt my back and then we hung up. We get to the hospital and there is some rude ass bitch at the check in counter. She says to me "what can I do for you today", really I at the E.R. balling my head off fuckin' fill in the blanks! I tellher my back hurts so bad it is goin; through to my chest and causing my arm to hurt as well. She then says "so do you want to be seen for your back, chest or arm" with her snotty as tone. I then said well for my back since it is causin; all the other pain. I go to the first check in and then directly to a room. I get to the room and can not even get on the bed so I sit in the chair and my room mate and daughter sit on the bed. The doctor comes and says she thinks it is a muscle spasm. (I think really I have never heard of a spasm hurting this bad but ok) She says shays she is gunna have someone come in with some pain medicine so she can examin me without it hurting more. YAY, best news yet. It took forever for the pain meds to come, I get two Vicodin and a shot of muscle relaxer in the ass. I sit there for about 20 minutes and my arm starts to feel better but the chest and back still hurt. The doctor comes to check on me and I tell her that she says give it 20 more minutes. I was getting so mad cause it hurt sooooooo bad but what can ya do? My chest pain the starts to dissapate but back pain still there. She decides she needs to do the exam and starts pushin on my back askin me if it hurts....um duh, here's your sign bitch. LOL. But she still says muscle spasm and says she is gunna give my some more pain meds, muscle relaxers and an anti-inflamitory and to go home and rest and try to move it as much as possible. So we leave and go drop off the prescription and they say an hour and a half at this point it was 10:30.......GRRRRRR. We go home and I am still in pain. I sit here starin at the clock and time goes by soooo slow. When it was finally time,12:00, we went and got the scripts and came home. I decided to take the anti-inflamitory and a muscle relaxer but not another pain med cause I did not want to Overdose. I took the meds and almost immidatley fell asleep. I awoke 3 hours later at 3:00 in excrutiating pain still so I take two pain meds and another anti-inflamitor but not a muscle relaxer cause I do not want to go back to sleep. I then remeber that today is the day I set to go get my nails done with my Peggy and we never see each other anymore so I do not want to miss it. I text her and make sure we are still on and decide I will tell her all this when I see her. i lay here tryin to relax and finally decide I need to try and shower at about 4:30. I took a shower and debated calling her and asking her to get me but I didn't. At 6:00 was time for me to leave, I go to get in to my SUV and my back is killin' me so I take 1 more pain pill and head on my way. I am almost to the nail place and Peggy calls sayin' she is car less and will be late. I can not start without her otherwise I would be finished by the time she got there. So I decide to go get her and tell her my ordeal, and she then feels bad for havin' me come get her but I informed her it would have been pointless for me to get my nails done without her cause I am dyin' in pain I do not need to sit there for no reason. She accept this and we go about our trip. We get there and she informs everyone of my injury and the barely understand, they just know my back hurts.LOL. We had fun bullshittin' and gettin' our nails done. I am glad I went it was well needed today. I have been home since about 8:30 and am still in pain. I am considering going to see my real doctor tomorrow but we will see how I am doin' in the am. Anyways that is my day, thanks for readin' and wish me luck that it's better in the am.
