Sorry for constant updates, but I'm trying to distract myself from the pain, which is getting steadily worse. I'm still in the doctor's office. They are getting me in with another doctor eventually. Anyone who can prescribe painkillers, at this point.

Do you need any help or transportation or anything at all this weekend, Pix? Call me if you do.

Eek, Pix! I hope you get the good painkillers soon!

Sean, I do, thank you. I just emailed you and our other local friends. I hate to ask, but I don't think I will be able to take care of myself or the pets for a couple of days.

Oh Pix, honey. I hope you feel better AND the school calls you and offers you the job.

Well I finally saw a doctor. She said it appears to be a severe muscle spasm but wouldn't look at the xrays for no discernable reason, which frankly pisses me off. Anyway, she gave me prescriptions for Flexoril, Tylenol with codeine, and 600 mg of ibuprofen to help relieve the spasm, the pain, and the inflamation, respectively. So I don't really care anymore. I'm sitting at CVS waiting for my meds. I'm going to drive through somewhere local for dinner, feed the pets, and drug the hell out of myself.
The spasms are so bad that they have pulled my neck completely out of alignment. My spine suddenly changes direction halfway up my neck in the xray. It's impressive.
ETA: Jilli, it's too late for the job unfortunately. I can't believe they didn't even have the courtesy to call me back. Not exactly doing wonders for my ego, that's for sure.
Oh, and the muscle spasm was most likely caused b. "severe stress.". Sigh.

That's what EM's been on lately. You're going to be very loopy.

Jeez, Pix, hope sleep and relief are both coming soon, I guess in whichever order or together. {{{Pix}}}

Pix, that sounds awful. I hope the meds work quick.
