Ow.

[hummingwolf]

The last time I was in this particular kind of pain for this long (and isn't it fun when life provides the oppportunity to become a connoisseur of pain?), a doctor gave me a prescription for Ultram, which, while it did take the edge off the pain, also deranged my brain enough that for an entire month I couldn't even think well enough to realize that I needed to stop taking the medication because I couldn't even think well enough to realize that I needed to stop taking the medication because I couldn't... yeah. Even if I were able to get through my new (assigned) primary care provider's voice mail system, I'd want to avoid that route.

Anyway. I'm reading what all the thoughtful people on my LJ reading list are writing, but I hope you'll forgive me if I don't comment much for a while. It's hard to think up any intelligent responses when the main thought in my head is "Ow."

Going to the local emergency room is a possibility growing more and more likely. I don't know how to do a walk in or anything else on this plan.
