He's Got X-Ray Eyes
Jan. 27th, 2007 04:26 pmWell, he reads x-rays anyway, and he didn't like mine at all.
I have to swing by the ER desk sometime and pick up a script for a follow-up x-ray in 6 weeks.
Not sure if that means one or both feet were further in the pneumonia camp or if something else was notso hotso. Not alarming enough to say "come back, come back, to the ER we'll take you..." but enough to say, "Umm, yeah, so are you feeling better?" "Yes." "Really?" "Yes. Breathing is a bit better." "Deep breaths?" "Those are still tough at times, but yeah, getting better." "Good. Come in immediately if it hurts more, or you have trouble breathing, or if blood starts squirting out your lungs, or if your lungs claw their way out of your mouth and start stalking the dark streets at night feasting on the lives of those that cross their path." (Well, I might be paraphrasing those last two.) I promised I would and he seemed relieved.
