The only good news that I got, was that since there's been no improvement with the boot and stuff, that it's up to me if I want to keep using it or not. So, since I hurt regardless, I'm just gonna try to go without it tomorrow and see what happens.
The dog is acting crazy cuz it's been storming. I had a drink with dinner and I guess I haven't had enough water today to compensate cuz I'm feeling completely dried out now, and I think I need a snack.
Oh, that stupid boot I wore for like 3 weeks, cost me 210.00 after my stupid insurance, plus 130+ for the doctor that I saw for not even 30 minutes last time and the Xrays....really?
We went to that Urgent Care back on April 5th, and I still haven't gotten a bill from them.
I just can't wait to see what I'm gonna owe for this stupid MRI
Hopefully the majority of it is covered
I hope so, but it's one of those "major" tests, diagnostic...whatever the Hell they call it. Back in 2012 when I got my brain surgery, they ran about 2k a pop. I had to have 4 in one year, and my insurance back then only covered 1 of them, and I ended up owing a buttload of money. It was insanely ridiculous then, I can't even imagine what itg could be now.
I thijnk I need a cheese quesadilla.

They got my MRI scheduled already. It's gonna be at 4:30 this tues. They did that fast.
I guess it helped that the part of my foot that wasn't horribly tender, practically had no feeling at all.
Okay, time to get my butt back downstairs and finish this day so I can relax.
Okay, we going out for ONE dinner with Ashley and Jonathan tonight before we get whatever things we're gonna need from the store for the next couple of weeks for lunches, and regular bread and milk type stuff, so that I don't have to go out anywhere else this weekend except for to find where that MRI place is at so I know where I'm going on Tues, so we can just chillax for the rest of the time.
I'm so damn tired I actually fixed my face so I wouldn't look as crappy as I feel. Lol
Sleep now please

Kinda wants to make me go look for Destroy All Humans! 1 and 2 for my PS2. I never played those.
I"m sorry guys. I already took Tramadol and flexeril today so I'm kinda outta it. I tried everything else and Ibuprofen does nothing now, and Henry already rubbed my eucalyptus and spearmint oil into my neck, shoulder and back muscles that I can't reach....but I still needed something else.
I don't know what else to do. No position is comfortable and I can't just lay in bed all day. So, I'll probably be popping in and out and I'll try not to post nonsense....but I just kinda wanted to put this warning out there...just in case and apologize in advance for any medication induced stupidity.
Okay, now that we actually ate some food...I'm starting to feel that medicine a lot more.
Okay....too sleepy. Need nap.
Well, that didn't help too much.
Even though I took that short nap, it wasn't very restful, plus I was having nightmares, so we laying down now. Gonna try to get some decent sleep tonight.
Yeah....that seems like a pipe dream. For me at least. How am I supposed to sleep, when it hurts for my body to be lying on the mattress? Like, seriously? I'm just lying here, why is a bed making my body hurt more?
I can sleep in other people's bed, even when their hard. Why can I not sleep in my own? This is insane.
I found Destroy All Humans! 1 but not 2.
We also stumbled upon a game called Dark Angel: Vampire Apocalypse. I would have passed on it, except Karen pointed out something funny. It takes place in a land called Gothos.
The Squire is a bratty pain.
Bleh, DAH! didn't work.

What I love is that comment could be taken as "Well one of them's dead so...pretty harsh" or " well three of them are still alive, so not too harsh"
I'm so ready to go home. Still gotta go to the store.
Slammed tonight. Major outage. Will post when it dies down
Okay, hope your night goes quickly.
Have to go back to Maumelle tomorrow and I have to be at the MRI place by 4:30, which is all the way across town, like over the river and stuff.
I'm getting off at 4 tomorrow, so I'm hoping I can make it over there in time in the afternoon traffic.
You really can find anything online.
Lol
There's a market for everything.
They've got a whole line of these things, mostly horror villains. I Find most of them more disturbing then the original media they come from.
Understandable.
Is it something I should look at, or is it creepy?
It's a statue of Ash from the Evil Dead movies if he was an anime chick.
Oh, okay. Lol
Yeah, there's no way in hell I was going in today hurting like this.
I've been up all night, I'm still hurting really bad, and I got a headache from hurting.
Thanks.
I got an appt at 3 with that Dr guy so he can, "take a look at it" as the nurse said. It's hard to explain over the phone that it's not one place that's hurting, but my whole body and certain areas more than others.
I'm so sorry kiddo. Try to get some rest today.
I'm trying. Not easy

Sooo....good news, the MRI didn't show anything wrong with my foot that could be causing this kind of pain. Just some normal wear and tear type stuff, some arthritis.
After going over the MRI with me though he started asking all kinds of questions about my pain. Where is it mostly, do I notice itf more at certain times of day, what kind ofc pain. And then I explained about all the back and shoulder injuries I sustained as a CNA, and what that one Dr said about me having some kind of degenerative disk disease blah blah whatever. He asked how long ago that happened, and honestly it had been so long I couldn't remember. So, with everything I told him, and not seeing anything on the foot MRI that alarmed him, Dr. Dellinger came to the conclusion that it had to be something spinal/nerve related, andc since his knowledge of that area is not very significant, he's referring me to someone that he thinks can help, and now I get to have an MRI if my spine done and see yet another specialist.
I should be hearing from someone from the spine specialist office to set up an appointment either tomorrow, or Monday at the latest.
Not as bad pain wise as last night, but like certain areas are still feeling painful and tender as I'm laying in the bed so I have to be careful not to flop around too much, but I try sleep now. Just really really need sleep.
Okay rest well
It's not.
I can't even really describe it, but no matter which side I lay on, something iOS either hurting, going numb, or both, and if I try to roll the other way, or get off my hip, it feels like something is shifting, or like a sharp stabbing pain, and if I try to lie on my back...pain shoots from my shoulders into my neck....
I don't know....it's just, like whatever part of me is touching the bed, feels like I'm on fire, like hot pain. See? It sounds stuipid. Why can't I just go to sleep? I've been trying, really....the pillow hurts my head, the bed hurts my body...I can't go in the living room with Dixie, and I'm worried about keeping Henry awake. I don't know what to do.
The Tylenol helped the headache, but wirhb not sleeping...that's coming back too. The tramadol and flexeril...I thought it was helping at first, but the second I lay down, it's like I took nothing at all.
I feel like, why even bother with it if it's not helping anymore? I feel like I could pass out completely if I could just stop hurting long enough to do so.
I'm sorry, I just...I just want itg to stop.
It makes sense. Nerve issues often feel like fire or electricity at the point of contact. Hopefully, they'll get you in soon and figure out the source.
