I’ve had a pinched nerve under my shoulder blade for over a month and it is killing me. I’ve talked about some of my ongoing health and pain issues before, but this is out of the ordinary. I’ve had pinched nerves like this, but they usually clear up on their own after a few days or a week. This one has not, and it hurts like hell.
Because insurance sucks, I had to make an appointment with my ortho just to get seen first, for him to diagnose me and basically say, Yeah, you’re clearly in a lot of pain., we should try to do something about that. Then it took weeks for my insurance to clear the necessary shots that I really hope might help. I’m going in for those on Tuesday morning. This was literally the soonest I could get an appointment for this, which seems crazy to me, but I guess that’s a fair representation of the current state of American health care for most of us.
Getting through work has been a struggle. I may go into more detail in the future, but…yeah. It has been rough. I really hope I’ll start feeling better this week, because I’d like to post about a few streaming shows I have watched. I also owe you all a post about everyone’s (least) favorite inmate at FCI Seagoville, because I came across some information about him and his activities that I wasn’t looking for at all. You’ve probably heard some or most of it already, but I still think you’ll appreciate the perspective.
I’m not trying to tease future posts. I just want to feel better when I write about that stuff. I hope everyone is doing well and I know I’ll get to bringing you better content here soon. Thanks for hanging in there with me.
Apologies for the infrequent posts of late
Take care of yourself as best you can, and we hope those shots come through for you ASAP!
I always imagine the orchestrating minds behind American healthcare as being straight out of the Buffy-verse Hellmouth. Something with clicking mandibles and an affinity for EOBs that don't match medical invoices. God help us, every one.
Looking forward to your upcoming projects as always!
I'm so sorry that you're in so much pain. Take care of yourself and I hope you feel better soon! ❤
