Doctor update...

[plunkybug]

In my haste to update with the news of my parents stuck at sea, I neglected to update about what happened at the doctor's office. Not a whole lot was learned about my back, but I had some x-rays done, which I rather expected. I also had chest x-rays for the breathing issues. I will get a call back once the results of both x-rays come in. She checked for wheezing, but said I wasn't wheezing, but I could still be suffering asthma, and she gave me an Advair sample, with prescription, to see if it helps loosen up my chest a bit. So, she hasn't said, "yeah, you have asthma" in so many words, but getting the chest x-ray and script makes me think she suspects it at the very least. The only treatment for the back at this time is pain medication or heat therapy. So, no diagnosis on the back/leg/hip thing yet, and no positive comfirmation on the chest thing. Possibly asthma in the chest. Possibly nerve pinching or inflamation in my back.

Preparing the email as we speak, well sort of. :)
