What kind of back doctor has an office on the 2nd floor?!?
I mean, really now. That's some bad thinking.

But... I made it to the doc, finally! Got a shot in the spine and some fancy new pills to try. Maybe I'll get some sleep finally!

1. Maybe one with one of those fancy new high-falutin' "elevator" things?
:shrug:

Glad you were able to get to a doc! I hope it proves helpful! Start that new job yet?

3. no, not yet
still finalizing things on the offer front, so it's still not "official".

And I looked for an elevator! Didn't see one. It was a beautiful little courtyard thing with a nice pond and fishies and stuff. But no elevator.

4. My dentist is on the 5th floor of a glass building
but there's an elevator and my regular Dr. is in a one story building.

I hope you feel better! :hi:

10. Thank you, buddy
I was given Ultram and Voltaren (an NSAID). I'm waiting for them to kick in - I feel a bit better already, but that could be the lidocaine in the injection.

I'd just love to get some sleep.

My podiatrist is Dr. Footer. No lie.

12. One that doesn't want to treat anyone.

16. Thank you.
I'm starting to feel a bit better already. The test will be seeing if I can actually get a night's sleep.

21. I'm hoping!
She prescribed Ultram, which I've never had before. It seems to be working - the pain is already significantly relieved, and I managed to take a nice nap today. OF course, that could also be from the injection, but I'm happy nonetheless.
