home again home again...

sounds like a bit from some nursery rhyme...

Didn't go to Hospital.
Current wait period... six hour before you see anyone.
Go to clinic instead... clinic closed...
Go to other clinic... be seen inside 5 minutes.
Young looking doctor... (note: everybody is "young looking" lately... and clearly it's something everybody else is doing because it can't have anything to do with me...!)
er... where was I?
oh yeah...
Young looking doctor has me do the full range of motion... which is ok.
but she zones in on the exact sore spot and bloody hell... she found it yo!
So scribble scribble scribble and "off you go to here, here or here (gesturing at map) to get a series of x-rays..."

We talk about the x-ray results... in terms of healing time.
Broken... off skis till March... no question.
Not broken... off skis till February minimum.
Bottom line... very sad.

The x-ray clinic was practically empty (amazing, considering the wait time at the hospital).
Pictures taken and - the only down side to using the "clinic services" - now I wait for the radiologist report to get to my clinic doctor and for her to phone me.

sigh.
