Thank you for your hugs and kind words, Sultana.
I appreciate them, really.
Well, I just called the doc to make an appointment... there's an opening at 9am tomorrow (either that or I have to wait a few weeks, which I don't want to do). So I guess that's it. I'll wake up early and chug some Advil, then head up there. I wish the doctor was a female, but oh well... he's not. I wonder if I can bring my headphones to distract me??
Those who have gone through this... how much Advil should I take? Two doesn't seem like enough... how much is it safe to take? Any other advice on reducing the pain?
