Default my trip to neuro and whining

Well I survived and it was good to see my ol' doc again. She is still looking for something that will work for me. I asked about new meds/vacines in clinical trials. She say that there are 5-6 down the pike that look "really really promising". (her words) She says that I'd need to be off the Imuran for 3 months before starting anything new, but I'm thrilled with the prospects. The mean nurse says no narcotics (I just want 1/2 vicodin) to help with the constant numbness and tingling and general pain in my hands. Geez what a witch!

I had to do the regulation drunk driver tests and hoop jumping and her evel temporary nurse gave me the big exercise lecture. Yah, yah. I know what I should be doing, but the couch is so comfy. She said to think of it like brushing your teeth, something to be done every day. She said "if you choose not to exercise, don't brush your teeth. Yuck I thought. I'm a brushing fool. So ...

Saturday I shopped for 8 hours hitting 11 stores and one restaurant with my friend. I brushed my teeth. Today, I spent 2 hours washing my sisters elephant collection(not real ones), until my back started spasming (that really hurts). So I required a 2 hour nap. But golly my back is still screaming at me. Not to mention my ankle from May (when I fell and rolled over the retain wall) is making it really difficult to walk today. Remind me to shop online from now on, will ya!

Well, I've whined enough today. What'd you all do this weekend?
