Hello,

I guess with  no response from Anita, we know she’s gone from this thread. End of story. Move along.. right?

I appreciated your support Amy, that means a lot to me. Thank-you for the advice Mark. I’m supposed to be going to a clinic tomorrow to see a doctor about this stuff. One of the paramedics is willing to help me get there and back. I really don’t want to go. I am so exhausted and I have chronic pain (and that has been bad too) In order for me to be able to go tomorrow, I need to get everything ready tonight and I’ve barely moved off the sofa. I’m scared to go tomorrow and I just want to stay home. I might try to get things ready, because then if I feel like I can actually do this, I won’t have to get up early tomorrow and stress about getting ready.  I tried calling the clinic to see if a female doctor would be on, but of course they don’t answer the phone. I’m not sure if I can do this. I’m also worried that I could wait hours. This clinic is like a mini-hospital, the only one we have in this city. I guess you could call it an alternative to the hospital for less severe issues. They can do an x-ray for my wrist if needed. It’s a long drive and I don’t want to have the paramedic take up his time and if I find it’s a male doctor I don’t know what I’d do.
