I guess I'm just skeptical, because the last time I was told that I'd have a symptom for 4-6 weeks, it never went away (the headache in the back of my head, from the encephalitis). So, it's hard to focus on much other than that.

vw, I hope the doctor is right about the transitory nature of the pain this time.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
My stomach prodded me awake an hour ago with extreme glurpiness, and Hec has been in and out of bed all night with his still-excruciating coccyx, poor lamb.
Poor Zmayhems! JZ, you need fizzy water and crackers, and I think Hec needs ibuprofen and one of those donut butt pillows.

In crafty news, I crocheted two skeins of yarn into my pancho last night at the ER. One of the security guards was amazed at how much I got done on the project while sitting there. I'm just so thankful that I had it work on.
Two more skeins of yarn, and it'll be done. It's gonna be fabulous. I can't wait to finish it.
This is the yarn: [link] Emily thinks it looks like sherbet. It's just really fun and springy.

Maybe, tell your doctor about this concern? Hopefully she can reassure you that it won't be the case this time, adequately. Although it is your experience, and a big one, try to keep in mind that this is a different situation. That may help to keep from feeling overwhelmed...
This sucks. {{vw}}

I hope your day goes better than expected, vw and that your doctor says what you need to hear.

Not remotely comparable, but I've been going through a series of chain-reaction problems with my right leg (due to chronic, recurring arthritis in my feet, that cause me to limp for a while, that aggravates my knee/ankle/whatever, that causes me to limp a while more, that aggravates...rinse, lather, repeat) for the last week, and I'm so sick of not being able to move around remotely normally it's making me stir crazy. I can't even imagine going through the kind of breakdowns your body is pulling on you. Much health-ma {{{{{{{{{{{
