Not nervous, absolutely

selenayTonight there is a very important rugby match. Obviously, I am not nervous at all, in the slightest, nu-uh.
If I say it often enough I'll start to believe it. Sometimes, it's torture being an England rugby fan. Meep.
In other news:
Dear Body,
We are on lots and lots of painkillers. We have so many that we rattle. Why, then, are you ignoring the presence of said painkillers and insisting on having period cramps despite the fact that we shouldn't be able to feel a thing through all of this?

The good news is that the higher dose of anti-inflammatories plus the amitriptyline has worked wonders on my hip pain. The bad news is that the back still hurts quite a lot, really.
I had an MRI done on my hip on Thursday. It was not pleasant. They had to tie my ankles and knees together and strap me to a board to make sure that my hip was in the correct position and remained that way. Of course, that made my back hurt quite a bit. And fifteen minutes in a teeny dark tube while tied up is, oddly, not a fun experience for me. It may be for some of you, but I think that I'm a very vanilla person and that kind of thing does nothing for me except make me go "Yurp" quietly in my head.
I should have the results on Tuesday, though. I'm actually hoping for something to turn up so that I can point to it and shout gleefully "See that? Not crazy!"
Heh.

Thank you. At the time all I was thinking was "Yurp" but when it came to writing the thing up I decided that funny was the way to go rather than "woe is me, pity the crippled girl". Mostly because I know at least a few of you might have enjoyed the tied up part *g*
Ah the joys of it all.
It gives you so much confidence in your treatment when these things happen *sigh*
