Nurse and doctor saw right away that my anxiety was out of control. He prescribed some Prozac, something (I don't remember) to get the glutamate down and gaba up, and some kind of pain med. Said to call him in 2 weeks and he'll up the dose of the Prozac. I felt better, because it felt like he was listening and taking my mental health seriously. We talked about my other medical issue and he seemed like it wasn't a worry. Older people take longer to heal muscle tweaks.

However with all the paperwork, I now have other things to worry about and I'm almost more anxious now than when I went in. I walked the dogs but rushed them to get home and snapped at them a couple of times. I hate what this is doing to me. Sorry to be a bother. I hope you are all doing OK. I'm glad I went and did get some relief, I just wish I didn't have more different things to worry about.
