on the urging of many close friends and the fact that i couldn't breathe while driving in the car with cj, i went to the e.r. last night.
anyone wanna see a $1,700 bracelet?
i hope they enjoy my $10 monthly payments i plan on making. at that rate without figuring in interest, i'll be paying for tonight's visit for the next... oh... 14 1/2 years.
diagnosis: reactive airways disease.
treatment: antibiotics. inhaler. $60 cough supressants.
on top of two chest x-rays, a nebulizer and my first round of meds, they also did a test for pertusiss which involved sticking a six inch long wire with a q-tip on the end of it up my nose. single handedly the most painful and uncomfortable thing i have ever experienced, this coming from a kid who spent 2 1/2 hours having gravel scrapped from his forearm after eating a trick on the ol' bicycle.
the killer is that while doing the pertusiss test, the douchebag of a nurse used the wrong swab so guess fucking what?
THEY HAD TO DO THE FUCKING THING AGAIN. if i wasn't wearing one of those sexy backless hospital gowns, i may have stabbed the little man in the neck with the wire end of the swab.
stopped off at walgreens and got my meds ($95 - thanks dad) and i'm home (3:30 a.m.). wide awake (thanks steroids) and still coughing quite a bit, but at least i can fucking breathe.
at least i can sleep well knowing bush is working on some sort of univeral health care plan for us.
