Had a doctor's appointment today. Was supposed to just be a follow up to hear the results for an MRI on my wrist (I hurt it last summer and it still hasn't really gotten much better).
Well, after the appointment starting 15 minutes late, the doctor comes in with his portable ultrasound machine.
:|
I'd already had an ultrasound done on the wrist a few months back, prior to the MRI, so I definitely wasn't expecting a second one. This of course caused the appointment to take far longer, and because my sister is my ride to these sorts of appointments (meaning she has to take time out of her workday for me), and because she stuck around in the lobby this time since we both thought this was just going to be a quick thing, she's now angry at me...
-.-
AAAnd apparently, from the results of the MRI and this second ultrasound, I now need to go see a specialist to have some x-rays done to determine whether or not I need to have one of the ligaments in my wrist surgically rebuilt due to me being right on the edge for whether or not it's necessary.
....nothing like being in a vehicle where the driver's being angrily silent, meaning you had also better be silent lest you want to feel their wrath, and in your own head, sheer chaos is unfolding cause I obviously feel sorry for being a burden on my sister, and hope she doesn't get into trouble at work because of me, and at the same time I'm worrying over how many additional appointments I'm going to have to be making when I've already had so many this past year (Besides the wrist stuff, the past 12 months have also seen a number of appointments and tests being done over digestive issues I've been having, with the end diagnosis being that I probably have IBS, seeing as how all the tests came back with normal results), which of course will have me being even more of a burden, and I'm worrying about whether or not I'm going to be needing to have surgery, and how long will I then be stuck without being able to use that hand properly, and of course I'm also thinking about how expensive this all is becoming....
aaaand... I want to cry...
tldr; doctors stuffs, expenses, and I'm a nuisance..
Oh... and my birthday's one week from today...
-.- ~yaaaay..
