Well, I had another appt. today with the surgeon who misaligned the screw in my back. It finally dawned on him that after 7 months, something was wrong since I haven't gotten better just worse.

Then he tells me that he's going to take out the screw.....ewwwwwww. Wants to do it in 2 weeks - I politely declined that time frame (issues at work and I can't be away from there right now) and said that after April 3rd would be fine.

His first available surgical opening is the the 20th of April.......so, I will be held over night barring any extra problems (who me????? lol) and then I have to stay home for a week to recover. I talked to my supervisor and am taking that week as part of my vacation time.

Now I just stress out over memories of last Aug.......when I sat straight up because I couldn't breathe and had an allergic reaction to something - and how upset Alex was.

One side of this life's scale is definitely outweighing the other one.

Plus those two at work got a slap on the wrist, a talking to.......and that's it. And I was told that being a team player means getting along with everyone. So, I'm shutting up till I find a different job - and I am definitely looking.
