Gave in

The burning skin on my chest and scalp became too much to bear. I gave in and went to have it checked. I couldn't get in to see my doctor so I went to the emergency room in a small town on the other side of the county. They have much less traffic so I was able to see a doctor right away.

The verdict? I have a pinched nerve in my neck. Since I went to the ER, I was able to spend my little bit of cash on meds and pay for the visit later. Now, I wish the drugs would kick in! I was hoping to go back to work tomorrow, but I still haven't been able to sleep. My chest is still hurting SO much.
