ok, so the MRI machine is pretty small ,shit its really small

After the first 40 minutes they slide the table out and give me a shot. for the contrasting IMAGES ? I get done just in time to make my next appointment seems I have a large lump 6cm by Cm next to my spine between my shoulder blades they found during a exam of the spine that they wanted to do a biopsy or remove it and the doc says this is not a lypoma and he needs to get a look at it better ,( WTF, I am falling apart) I run back to radiology and get a ultra sound , turns out its not a lypoma but a phys-form / lined within the muscle???. they say "lets go with a muscle knot for now your as tight as a frogs ass" and they script PT for 2weeks and some robo something , 750 mg (west ward 292) on the tab
what the hell is that Mel and Does it work well with Rum ?
I know its a muscle relaxer.
If It is not resolved with in the 2 weeks we will make a new plan. More waiting

,

Friday I meet with the Doc to go over the MRI. I'm not sure if its the stress of the unknown but my hips ache more and getting weakness in my quads and hamstrings.

Moral of the story is, STAY away from the hospital and suck it up

Here is another funny thing that makes me laugh , they take your blood pressure when you go in and say , " hey your blood pressure is a bit elevated" . Really, no shit I wonder why.

Thats the name of the game in hospitals "hurry up and wait" - but serious get on the phone and ask if any cancellations you want their apt .... the waiting is hard to do and they have so many cases, that if you do not keep in contact with them you will be lost in line with everyone else. I know I work in the hospital field. The way to speed things up is to be demanding and keep making phone calls to get the tests sooner.

good luck and let us know
