Owwie owwie owwie -- one of those times when the diagnostic procedure hurt more than the original injury EVER did!!!!!!!!
The doctor injected the contrast dye into my left shoulder joint....oh my effing Jack TWist THAT HURTTTTTTTT!!!!!!! I could barely move my arm afterwards and THEN into the MRI tube for forty effing five minutes while the machinery took photos and I listened to thumps, bumps, whirrrs, grinding noises that if they came from my car would send me straight to the mechanics, and Chrsitian Rock....
Pain pain pain all up and down my left arm.... I could move and position it using my right hand but ow ow ow ow.......
Left arm pretty much useless for the rest of the day, thank GHOD for automatic transmission and power steering, Ibuprophen and Vicoden are my new best friends. I can still do stuff with my right hand, and my range of motion is slowly getting better on the left, maybe by tomorrow I'll be able to raise my left hand higher that my waist (sitting or standing) again without wincing, screaming or swearing under my breath.
Definately NOT cooking tonight -- gonna be take out or let Hubby /Daughterr display THEIR limited culinary skills.
Keep in mind that this was the Diagnostic Procedure, NOT the repair operation/Physical Therapy that will probably result from said Diagnostics....
Maybe I should have just zipped my lip and lived with it? ARRRRGGGGHHHH!!!!!!
