::Grumble::
Sep. 16th, 2002 09:58 pmSo. I went to the MediClinic today to see the doctor today. He suspected a break or fracture, but the x-rays didn't show anything. He's going to get the radiologist to take a look at them, and I may have to come in for more. I've been having some shooting pain in my forearms as well as aching in my entire wrist.
In the mean time, I've been prescribed the RICE treatment (Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation) and I'm not allowed to play volleyball for at least another week. I'm not supposed to be doing any lifting either, so I'm going to need some help in the Servery, and gym and IA are going to be difficult. ::Grumble:: Have you ever tried to carry lumber with one arm?
Out of curiosity: Of those of you who've had x-rays, have any of you ever felt something when they took them? A tingling, a vibration, or something else? Because I mentioned that I always did to the lab tech who was taking mine, and she said that someone had mentioned to her the other day that he could feel something, too. So I'm not the only odd one. ::G::
Nothing much else of note going on. Spent too much money on CDs today. The new Fuel, Bif Naked's 'I Bificus', and No Doubt's 'Return of Saturn'. Which so wasn't even close to what I intended on getting, but they were all on sale. A&B Sound may be one of the coolest stores around, but I always come out with odd things...
At least I don't have to be up for 5:30 for practice for the next week. Mwahahaha.

Date: 2002-09-18 04:51 pm (UTC)They're probably going to be taking a few more on my wrist, because the radiologist didn't see anything.
My brother actually broke his arm about a year ago, and it was very obviously broken, but the X-Rays actually didn't show it, either. But then again, I know a girl who was mistakenly casted until they injected dye into her bone marrow.
