Tomorrow is the big day!!!

I get to go to my first real appointment tomorrow to get my lab work, physc consult, dietitian, and meet my surgeon. I'm really excited.

But I am also feeling really bad right now. I have urinary tract infection, a really bad cold and just feel drained physically. Last night the pain in my back from the urinary tract infection got bad enough for me to give in a go to the urgent care clinic. This is when I found out that I had the infection. Now granted my back was and still is hurting pretty badly but I just couldn't believe it when the nurse came in with a pain shot and a shot with muscle relaxer!!! :confused_smile: I mean wow no reason for pain killers! I'll tell you what if they want to fix the prescription drug abuse problem in this area they need to start asking doctors why they are prescribing the pain medications to start with. I refused the shots and told them to keep their prescription for pain pills. I told them that I would take the antibiotics for the urinary tract infection but they could keep the rest of it. The nurse thought I was crazy. I told her not crazy just don't take narcotics unless I am in extreme pain.
