YES, I had to break down and see a doctor yesterday. And not only did I see one doctor, but two doctors!

First the symptoms:

On Sunday I felt (for the lack of a better word) faint. It only lasted a few minutes, but it was intense. And the Wed. morning, I felt real hot and then that same faint feeling, only not as intense.

On to the 1st doctor:

I really do NOT like my "family" doctor. He was only choses because of the fact that he particip[ates in our health insurance plan.
He really did NOTHING. Weight, blood pressure, listened to heart/lungs. That's it! Said it is something we should "monitor". So I went to pay only to find out he does NOT take my husband's new medical plan. $75 for NOTHING!!!!

I cried all the way home.

A little research on the web found me a participating doctor 1 1/2 blocks from my house. I went down and they are a walk-in place and to my surprise they took me in rioght away. I ended up seeing my DAD'S doctor (what a coincidence).

So the 2nd doctor says:

It is more than likely a muscle spasm. Try some neck and shoulder exercises. But took blood for testing and sent me for x-rays (which I still need to go do). JUST to make certain there is not a worse problem.
Very nice staff, I am glad to be rid of my "X" doctor. I just wish it was not to the tune of $75.......that is A LOT!!!

While I was there I told him abou tmy arm and he confirmed carpal tunnel syndrome. Typing and mousing with this splint sucks!

You know, I recently dropped twice that amount on Lucas' two blood tests and did not bat an eyelash, but spend that on me (and for a worthless do-nothing visit) makes me
