ARGH!
Sorry for the scream I just had to get it out.
For the last few years I’ve had back pain and right flank pain. I have been prescribed pain killers, but then I am told to avoid taking them since they often lead me to near-life-threatening constipation, so I have to rely on weaker pain meds.
One doc insists that it is due (the pain) to back facet nerve arthritis, and I need a series of shots to resolve the pain. I had one shot and it did bupkis.
The other doctor thinks it is due to kidney and bladder issues. He had me do a kidney scan which showed that my right kidney is functioning at 60 % and the right at 40 %, and that I yet again have bladded infection number 1,000,00 and the meds I last took for it were not the right ones, so I’ve been given another one. Once the infection clears he wants to see me to determine if I need a cath placed in between my kidney and urethra.
Fun stuff.
On top of that my friends and family want me to admit myself into the hospital for depression. Still working on getting my roommate to pay up the 1400 she owes me, still working on getting enough money saved up to get final teeth pulled and for dentures.
But. I am not so sure I want to go to the hospital. I just feel depressed and overwhelmed.
I just needed to rant.
What a life.
