So I had another appointment with the doctor yesterday about my leg pain. Ugh. They've been hurting really bad lately-- really bad. When it flares up, it's like this intense sharp pain and it's almost debilitating. Pretty scary. I've been worried it might be arthritis or something terrible like that-- or who knows. Well, happily, the doctor ruled out arthritis yesterday, as well as many other things he could think of that might be causing it. He's still thinking it's just a temporary virus and that it should leave my body soon as I get more rest. He gave me more anti-imflammation drugs to help ease the pain and it does help. And I'm definitely glad to hear that it doesn't seem to be anything major, but I'm still worried about it. So then I'm on the bus yesterday and I hear someone talking about acupuncture and it hits me that I should go. What a perfect reason! I had gone a couple of years ago for a trial and it was ok, but I wasn't there for a specific pain. Anyway, so I called up the acupuncturist yesterday and scheduled an appointment for tonight. I really hope this helps. Right now, the pain is not bad cuz of the meds, but I hope to cure the root of whatever problem there is tonight. Wish me luck.
