My Day from H-E-L-*
Thank you my dear friends! I felt stupid leaving such a 'down' post but DH said you would all make me feel better because chances are, you've gone through something similar. And, he was right. I went to Memorial in Pawtucket. I had to go to the xray dept twice. The first time was with Miss Skinny high and mighty. She even took the wrong xrays! The second time, I told the tech about my first experience and she was much nicer. I told them I didn't want Skinny pants again. They were nice enough to give me the normal sized lady the second time around. I'm not feeling much better today. I, personally, don't think it's broken. Just a bad sprain. I just feel crappy having everyone help me up and down. Even in that bathroom. This is so darned humiliating!!!!!! Especially because I, apparently, ate something yesterday that's not agreeing with me today (wink, wink, say no more...). Don't get me wrong....I'm EXTEMELY grateful for all the support and help I have. I just feel so defeated! I'm tired of being a burden on everyone in my life! I am tired of 'holding in' the pain I am going through each and every day! If my family and friends only knew the whole truth about how I feel and how my body feels! It's so claustrophobic! I feel so helpless and so stuck in my body! I know better days are coming. I'm just so darned miserable right now! Do you know what I mean? Aaargh! Better days ahead. Jules

Oh Jules!!! I' sorry you are hurt and the were treated so badly in a place where you should be getting some sympathy and care. That tech is in the wrong career for sure. Take care of yourself, and be nice to yourself for the rest of today until you see your doc tmrw.

Jules,
I am sooo sorry about all this happening to you. You poor thig. I totlay understand the feeling about one more thing to add to the pille. I also totaly know the feeling about x ray techs. I remeber going for an MRI and it was the open one I had just fit and then they have to put that protective vest on. To put me in the machine they had to keep squishing me down it was so awful and the tech was anything but comforting. I hope that you feel better soon!! Bright Sunny Days ahead!!!!!!!!
