Doctor or Quack? You decide...

So I made it to the doctor's office yesterday. They took me in, went through all the preliminaries (weight, hight, Blood Pressure, pulse, etc.), then the doctor came in. He listened to my lungs, looked in my nose and ears, and swabbed my throat. Then he sent me off to get the swab examined and some blood taken. The Phlabotamist (sp?) used the same vein that all of them seem to like using...my poor vein.

After a 35 minutes wait, I got my results back on both tests. I then trekked back across the Health Center results in hand; only to wait another 10 minutes (playing Bejeweled on my phone) for the Doctor to come in and say..."Your bloodwork looks normal, you dont have strep either. However, you have some type of Polyp in your nasal passeges. However, I need to send you to the Ear/Nose/Throat Specialist so he can look in there and know for sure whats going on." Riiiiiiiiiiiiigght!

I have had some type of Nasal Congestion for the past 8 months or so. However, I didnt have any type of Health Insurance until September and Ive been too busy to go till yesterday. So, the whole trip yesterday was $10 and they didnt do anything but refer me to a specialist. AAAAHHHHHHH!!!!

So, this coming wednesday I have another appointment. Hopefully to get some answers this time.

Ok, new quiz this time. I like this one cause its short and sweet. Just one question. Anyway, you can try it if you like:

Your Hidden Talent

Your natural talent is interpersonal relations and dealing with people.
You communicate well and are able to bring disparate groups together.
Your calming presence helps everything go more smoothly.
People crave your praise and complements.

Ok, congrats to Kirsa for getting the obscure Monty Python and the Search for the Holy Grail quote. You go girl!!! The new quote I'm going to make a little harder cause these last two were guessed entirely too fast!! However, it will be from one of my favorite movies. So if you know me then that should narrow it down some. Good Luck!!
