This was going to be the last visit. I'm done. I've had my nail yanked out, pus drained and its like a real toenail! So this was going to be my breakup until I needed him in the future. Then i had to open my big mouth:
"so, is it bad if I sharp shooting pain periodically and irregularly in my bunion foot?" I told him how i stubbed my toe 4 times in one week during the great flood of 2009. I reassured him that the offending furniture was moved and there would be no more toe stubbing. He gave the foot a little rubdown and decided we needed some x-rays. I love x-rays even if they give me cancer. As he was about to walk out of the room he seemed like he forgot to ask something important. He turned and asked if my periods were regular. Yes they are. But what if they weren't? My mind was trying to figure out what that could possibly be the symptom of? Foot Cancer? Gout in my uterus? WHAT?!!!! I asked him what it meant if they weren't regular as I was trying to think of the horrible things that could have been wrong with me if my cycle was just that much "off". He answered "well, you could be pregnant". I slapped my forehead because I am SO STUPID!!!!! No x-rays for the pregnant ladies. Hahaha, I'm dumb. Anyway, my toe was not broken but i do have a deep contusion. This meant a needle. He sat down and the nurse assistant lady handed him a giant blue needle! Or a giant clear needle filled with blue fluid. Whatever, it was blue. And large. I asked for lots of cold spray because I love that stuff! He gave me the cold spray and then jabbed that needle deep into my big toe joint. It wasn't cortisone but it was a different something-osone like it and its like an epidural for my toe. I can't feel a thing in my toe and I won't for about 15 hours. I wonder how much this is going to cost. Oh, and the breakup was cancelled. I go back in a week.

I'm glad that you aren't pregnant with a blue baby.
Seriously, just cut that shit off and be done with it...
