I finally caved in and went to immediate care today. I had tried since Sunday to take care of my shoulder myself. But yesterday it was causing nausea and vomiting and today I just figured I should get it checked out.

I had to wait a bit but once I got in the doctor was very nice. She did an exam and then sent me for the xray. They did a lot of diffrent xrays. I have mild AC joint arthirtis, regular arhritis, and bone spurs. She sent in a script for a steroid and told me not to lift anything.

I googled this stuff and it sounds a bit freaky but I'm trying not to worry. I'm mainly worried about the steroid side effects. I messaged my pdoc and asked if it was ok to take it for 5 days or if I should go get the shot instead.

Idk why I'm falling apart at age 31. I just know it will be a lot easier to keep getting SSI and medicare for this physical stuff if things go down the toilet next year.
