Advice anyone? in 2015

So I got a call back from my Dr wanting me to come back in to talk to me. I guess my finger is way worse than they initially thought. The bone is broken right off and is floating around in there and there is a fracture and all the ligaments are torn. I have to keep it taped until next week when I see another Dr, (third doctor!) and have another xray. Actually, I have to keep it taped for at least 6 weeks.

It still hurts but a lot of the swelling has gone down, besides the knuckle. Its got lovely shades of yellow and purple going on as well. I think I’m losing muscle tone in the top part of the finger too, either that or the tape has caused it to look like that.

I also pinched a nerve in my neck and I’m having a hard time sleeping or moving or fucking living because of it. But the weird thing is, it doesn’t hurt all the time. It comes and goes. Anyone have any advice on what to do for pinched nerves? I’ve used the heat thing… like the bean bag thingie. I’ve taken a mixture of tylenol and advil and that seems to take the edge off but it hurts my stomach at the same time so that is a shitty thing. I’ve massaged the fuck out of it and also used voltaren. (Sp?)

If anyone has dealt with this before, let me know!!

Miley and Evelyn have been little shit heads these last few days. I could strangle them! Chris is still sleeping and its 12:30! I am just working my butt off as usual around this time of year. It seems the only downtime for photos is the few weeks after the new year begins. I had 3 weeks exactly without any work. I’m not complaining tho because the rest of my year is jammed!

I’m hoping the snow leaves soon so we can get our trailer to the campground!

Anyway, cutting this short because my finger hurts, and my neck is starting to hurt as well. I have to get Miley off to her friends birthday party and then after that I think I’m going to grab an iced cap for Tiffany and I and sit with her.
