Falling Apart
All of a sudden I have all these
issues. It's ridiculous. First, I've been coughing for five days - an annoying dry cough that comes and goes all day, followed by an intense throat clearing session. Really lovely. I asked one of the docs I work with and he said I have a mild viral bronchitis and to keep taking Robitussin. Then, yesterday afternoon at work I started having a sharp pain in my left shoulder whenever I reached for the phone. The pain is intense and happens whenever I move my arm in certain directions (up, down, or away from my body). What the heck!? Several mornings this week I've woken up with my arms over my head and have had some difficulty "steering" my left arm to the alarm clock - it was wobbly and without good fine motor skills. I thought this was simply due to lack of blood since it was above my head. But now this? I didn't even do yoga this week, but am wondering if doing it for the previous two weeks has some how loosened up my joints so much that I've injured myself somehow. Of course it has to happen on a Friday afternoon and I am left to wonder all weekend what's going on before I can see a doctor. I'm telling you, 30 is a bitch!
