a day in the life
Current mood: worried

ah... today has been interesting thus far. It started out with going to the ever wonderful *cough* Martin hospital for a CT scan. Okay.. I guess I should back up since most of you probably have no clue why I was having this to begin with...

Well for almost three years now, I've had a pain behind my eyes. They thought glasses might help, so I got glasses. They helped my vision, but not the pain. They told me that after my back got fixed that would help. It didn't. So recently the what I used to call headaches.. have gotten more constant, more painful, and have made me extremely dizzy. So being the smart blonde that I am *yet another cough* I decided to go to the doctor. He couldn't find anything wrong.. I explained my symptoms and he ruled out sinus and tension headaches, migraines and the like. He said he was worried that it had gone on so long and that that made him think it may be something more serious. But just in case, he sent me to the eye doctor. She said there was nothing wrong with my eyes, so it had to be something deeper.. Which led to me getting an appointment to get a CT scan (not cat scan.. don't ask the difference bc I don't know) on my brain/head at 7:30 am this morning. I now know why a communications course is required for people going into the medical field. It seems that some people... like the lady who did the insurance stuff and paperwork... lack what I thought was a basic skill. Obviously it's not. Otherwise the people were really nice, even the lady who did my bloodwork (which me she poked me with a needle). She was like man, you're good with needles! and I was like as long as I don't look at them... but anyways... Even the guy who did my scan was pretty nice... it turned out that he went to Jackson State and did the same program that I'm doing. I think I'd rather do specialized scans than boring old x-rays now that I've thought about it... or maybe both. Radiography @ JSCC is such a widespread degree that I'll have more than choice of jobs, unlike most technical programs.. so that's nice. But anyways... They did about 4 scans and then they injected me with some contrast fluid *ouch* and did another one. Needless to say,  I'm tired of being poked. We won't find anything out until tomorrow. I'm kinda of worried and scared. I hope it's something silly... It probably is then I'll feel silly for wirrying... I hope so.

Well anyways... Thanks once again for listening to me ramble. I'll update when I find something out. Byes!
