Semi-Charmed Life

Ribs (Not the ones you eat)

I left work early yesterday to see the doctor because my ribs were still bothering me. The act of sneezing feels like somebody is taking a chisel and slamming it inside my ribs. My doctor suspected it was a rib fracture but he received the x-ray results today and told me he had good news, that it was not a fracture after all. I'm not quite sure what to make of that because that means I still don't know what kind of injury I have. The only thing I know is that it fucking hurts.

Not that he can really do much for me anyway. He did, however, prescribe me some painkillers. Ultracets. I'm pretty sure I was better off without the painkillers because I felt like complete shit today. I felt very dizzy and extremely nauseous at work. The side effects are way worse than the pain itself!

I still have to take an ultrasound this Saturday of my stomach to make sure my organs are okay. Hopefully I'll be better by the end of the month because life is absolutely boring being away from the gym! I can't train bjj. I can't lift. I can't run. I can't do ANYTHING physically demanding. Life has been so BORING these past two weeks!

I had a longer entry in mind but I'm still feeling the effects of the painkillers so it's time to say good night!
