Much Muttering and Motoring

This picture from my archives features a dim view from one of the hospitals I visited today. A dim view is what I take of visiting hospitals, indeed.
On Tuesday, from a certain lack
Of comfort in my lower back,
My doctor sent me off a ways
To get a set of nice X-rays,
Once seen, he did a bit of urgin’
For me to see a neuro surgeon,
And quite successfully did seek
To book one for the self-same week;
Today that neuro surgeon guy
Sent me to get an MRI,
To get it done the self-same day
Same hospital was not O.K,
So, off to second one, to lie
Inside a tube, noise-levels high!
Then back while radiologist
Checked for what neuro might have missed —
Now, Monday, hospital am booked
So biopsy can then be tooked
To see just what it is that lurks
Wood cause pain in my lumber works.

More tests to confirm diagnoses needed, but then hopefully an ‘S’ can be taken out of scare turn it to care

That’s scary … may it be nothing too serious, and easily fixed.

To be hoped, indeed. I’ll settle for completely fixable, though, even without the ease.

Hit like, then unlike, then like . . . basically, glad you’re getting medical care but not glad you have the need for medical care. Hopefully, stuff will resolve to the best possible outcome.
