Oh, the Pain!

Ok, well, maybe "discomfort" is a more accurate word than pain, but my shoulder really, really hurts. I have a doctor's appointment later this afternoon. I wonder if I maybe have a pinched nerve or bursitis or something. I mean, this is more than muscle soreness; it feels like it's in the joint or something. All morning as I was teaching, I kept yelping, "Yow!" and "Ouch, ouch, ouch." I'm sure my students were quite disturbed, but if I turn my arm (of course, it's my right arm, the one I need) just wrong, it hurts a lot. I'll be really frustrated if the doctor tells me to just take more Advil. I've been doing that, and it's not helping very much.

I know I'm kinda whiney, but it's just what's going on with me today.
