Home from the ER

Last night (the 10th) I thought i was in for a great night! I was in pain like usual, but it was the night of the Tony Awards, my favorite awards show of the year! I was so excited to see all the performances! I was so happy to see Audra Mcdonald win, her performance that night in Porgy and Bess was chilling! Plus i loved her shoutout to Will Swenson (PRISCILLA!!!) and her daughter which was so touching!

After the awards i tried to sleep but couldn't get comfortable. The pain was different than usual too. It was very electrical. I felt like someone was stabbing me with a tazer in my back. I couldnt have any blankets or even a sheet touching me. My parents drove me to Jefferson ER at about 1:30 AM.  The first good sign was when i told the triage/check in nurse that i have Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy she says "RSD oh i know that well". Since most doctors don't even know what RSD is i was impressed that she knew what it was being a triage nurse. They thought there was a rare chance and a very rare chance that i had an abscess from the injection on Friday. the only way to show it is an MRI and at Jeff thats a 15 hour wait, but they could do bloodwork that can show a higher chance of it. So i got the bloodwork which only showed low hemoglobin and they gave me diluadid which made me feel loopy and tired but much better pain wise. We decided to not get the MRI and they discharged me at about 6:30 AM. Going to go call my pain doctor. All for now.
