good grief . . .
if it weren't already bad enough to be emotionally *down* right now . . . .

it appears that there is something horribly wrong in my ribcage area . . .

and it totally SUCKS to have to try to get oneself to a doctor/emergency room, etc. alone. very difficult driving. SON-OF-A-BITCH!!


aaarrrrggghhhhhh

1. Can you call somebody to take you? Neighbor, relative, friend, co-worker?

3. I don't ask for help easily, either. Glad your friend is coming to get you.
Hope you don't have to spend hours to be seen at the ER.

5. Is there a doc in the box near you? My son has successfully used
one in the Cary, NC area rather than going to the ER. They usually take walk-ins...

7. Yes, it's not easy; I remember driving to the ER once one-handed...in a car with
a manual transmission. Knees came in handy, then.

Best of luck to you. I hope it works out OK.
