I caught a screening of Fish Tank yesterday... it was actually quite a solid film. It runs a bit long, but it’s definitely worth your time if you want something meaningful.

I’m planning on heading out there as well, though I can only make it for Friday, and even then, I'll strictly be checking out the 😢 aquarium since my schedule won't allow for anything else...
🙂But honestly, having something at all is far better than nothing at all.

Looking for a specialist...

I already gave you a name... unless you aren't looking for a private specialist. ☕
If you call him, he’ll get you in by the day after tomorrow, but if this is an absolute emergency, he can see you immediately.

And yet she hasn't even bothered to schedule an appointment with her gynecologist in five whole months...

I don't take pills; I use the patch instead....
But if you've just started on them, expect some spotting—it’s perfectly normal for your body to be adjusting to the hormones. That was exactly my experience with the patches during the first three months. It doesn't even feel like an actual period; the flow is much thinner and lighter than usual....

What should I do??

For about a month now, I’ve been dealing with persistent pain in my right shoulder—even though I have full range of motion—along with chest pain on the right side and an agonizing ache lower down on my right back, right around where the kidney would be.
Over the last month, I’ve had two emergency room visits, one consultation with my primary care physician, one private specialist visit, and I've undergone two separate chest X-rays.
1. At the ER, they dismissed it as some insignificant virus that would pass quickly, prescribing nothing but 600mg Ibuprofen, which does absolutely nothing but mask the pain.
2. My family doctor insisted it was just muscle inflammation and prescribed 200mg Neoephen, some kind of topical ointment, and suggested massages.
3. During my private consultation, I had blood work and a urinalysis done; based on those results, I sought out four different doctors for lung X-rays, and the private specialist eventually prescribed 600mg Ibuprofen and Sumamed.☕
4. After the first X-ray, they claimed there was pleurisy, so they put me on Novocef and ordered a follow-up scan... however, the second scan showed absolutely no sign of pleurisy.
While the chest pain has finally subsided, the intense pain in my right shoulder and lower right back remains unchanged.
Furthermore, I am experiencing constant fatigue and shortness of breath whenever I exert myself, such as walking up a flight of stairs. The pain is most severe when I am lying down; since the right side is affected, I am forced to sleep on my side, whereas the discomfort is less intense when I am upright.
My urinalysis showed bacteria, and my blood work is far from ideal, with an elevated white blood cell count and an inflammatory marker at 45, when the normal level is only 5.
I am at a complete loss as to what my next move should be.
Regarding the back pain, I know for a fact it isn't my kidney because I have already seen a urologist, and everyone is telling me it's actually a bladder infection.
