i went to an optometrist on wednesday, because i've been getting headaches for the past few months. he checked my eyes, and didn't find any problems with my vision. he referred me to a primary care physician for the following friday(today).
my appointment was at 10am. i don't really like doctors offices. sick people scare me, and tend to make me sad.
dr. hall was very, very thorough and genuine. i like him. when i explained my headaches, and awful short term memory problems to him, i saw behind his eyes change. it was like a flash of real concern/pity. [chances are i'm reading way into this, but i swear i saw it happen].
anywho, he sent me off for blood/urine testings.
then, after i get outside of the office, as i'm walking to my car, i get a phone call. it's a secretary from the doctor's office telling me dr. hall scheduled me an appointment with a neurologist for later that day, and already set up an MRI for me next week. [talk about efficient!]
four hours later i meet with the neurologist. he isn't nice like dr. hall. he tells me most likely, i'm just stressed out. i try to convince him the only reason i have to be stressed out is because of my headaches and short term memory problems. he tells me that he doesn't see anything initially wrong, and in his opinion, there's a good 100% chance that the MRI will be perfect. i hope the MRI is perfect, too. but i also want to find out what's causing this. it's a very real problem.
so for now, i wait til next saturday.
p.s i quit my job yesterday. it was pretty rad. i'm feeling good about it.
