Dreams Of "ThePainInflictor"

On Wednesday, October 19th I went to see "ThePainInflictor" for the first time. After my falling in the parking lot of the hospital on my way to my first sleep study, "ThePainInflictor" diagnosed me with Prepatellar Bursitis. He discussed during that appointment that he normally gave cortizone shots as the first line of defense against the pain that this condition causes, but wouldn't you know it... cortizone is one of the two medications I know for a fact that I am allergic to.

So, instead he gave me Mobic, an anti-inflammatory pill and said to come back in 4 weeks. Well, 4 weeks was today. He started mashing on my knee and I started tearing up. He found the worst spot and I had a hard time not crying. He said, so, I see this has not gotten any better. Well... since you are still allergic to cortizone then I guess our next conversation is surgery.

He said that he would make a small incision on my knee and then go in and clean out all the scar tissue from the busted and bruised bursa sac and then stitch me up. He said it was a quick surgery, in an out, go home the same night and start walking the same day. Just to keep that knee straight for a week.

When I left the surgical coordinator, who does the scheduling of surgeries, was out of the office and she was supposed to call me back. I have yet to hear from her, but I bet I will tomorrow. "ThePainInflictor" wants to do surgery... I wanted to say *in your dreams*... but I'm tired of rolling over in the middle of the night and hitting my knee on something and in turn ruining my dreams. I think he's gonna win this battle.
