So for those of you who care (those of you don't be gone =p):
After 2 years and a couple thousand dollars of medical bills down the drain, I finally figured out what has been making me such a bitch.
I'm a woman.
No, besides that. Not only did I find out I have Scoliosis (abnormal curvature of the spine -- inherited) I have a spinal injury to both my neck and back which has been limiting my ability to function considerably. I write this as both an apology to the poor internet souls who dislike me cuz I'm a bitch, and also to ask if anyone else has, has had or knows anyone who can share thier experiences with similar problems.
I finally got to the right medical professional Tuesday after my neck started hurting (more than usual) and then locked up and wouldn't let me move it. So I got some x-rays that are really depressing (zig-zag spine instead of straight), and when I stepped into the doc's office today, they gave me a panthlet to read on... Spinal Decay (at 9am.. T_T).
But luckily I should be able to trade feeling like shit every day for some moderate and at times dibilitating pain. Not too bad the way I see it (feeling like shit every day FTL)! *takes a shot "to recovery"*
You've been a great e-crowd!
(And how does this affect you? I can't sit down for every long without having to get up (so my spine/muscles don't start tightening up. I will probably play less and have to go afk a bit every 15-20 min in a group. Hopefully *prays* my personality and mood will improve.)
