RE: Bizarre Creature of the Week!
sir coinsandchains I've been thinking about you today and wondering how it went. Did it feel better, did he adjust your back and what does he say about it?
I didn't expect to hear from you for awhile so no problem in getting back with me.
He used his strange little pneumatic table, which raised part of my body, while he pressed on it, and then it would drop really fast. No popping or cracking etc. It was some better, but I honestly was expecting a little more adjusting/popping etc. I guess I'll see how tomorrow goes.
sir coinsandchains! well did he take an X-ray and explain what was wrong? yeah I was hoping he could firmly put it in place and then the pain would be gone.
More or less, but I basically had most of that down... I cheat a little on stuff like that. When I worked at the hospital, at one point my office was next door to the Radiologist's office/reading room. I became good friends with one of them. He saw my name come through and actually called me on my cell phone while I was in the ER. When I answered, he goes, What the hell did you do now? then told me what was going on and a couple thing to try to keep it from hurting as bad. Then the ER doc walks in to inform me that he is waiting on the radiologist to read it while I'm on the phone with him.
Which pissed the radiologist off, "Did that SOB just throw me under the bus?"
You have to also realize that at this point I had 40mg of Demerol, and a Valium (just so I could get to the car) then they had an IV in me with morphine and a muscle relaxer pumping into me. So basically I was high as a kite. It probably wasn't the smartest move to ask if he wanted to talk to him....
haha! oh man that's funny but it's SO not a funny situation. A morphine IV, wow, that had to be a blessing. Interesting connections you got there though, I'm just praying that you don't have to go the medical route and their attempt at repairs.
