Crusblette, totally understand your dad not liking the doctors, I'm the same way. My mother slipped because of a leaking pop machine in a Hardees she worked at when she was 18 years old. Slipped a disc in her back, Fairly common surgery now, but back then they had no idea what they were doing and her surgery messed her up more then the initial injury. 28 or so years later, hundreds of hours in physical therapy, surgeries, pain specialists, and god knows how much money for her back problems, and now hip and knee problems (because of how she walks with her bad back) Needless to say, after growing up watching my mom in pain, and visiting her in hospitals after countless surgeries to try to repair the first one, I'm not a fan of doctors or hospitals in general.

Anyways, after some internet searching on bruised and broken tailbones I find out doctors can't really do anything for either cept load you up on drugs, and I don't need those, so no point in going to get x-rays to find out which one it is.

I hear ya man. My dad has a story like that as well. His mom was in a bad way and a nurse was about to give her medicince that she was allergic to, could've killed her, but my dad stopped it. Amongst other stuff with his mom, he just doesn't trust them much anymore. Guinee pigs is what we become. To get my dad's blood pressure fixed, he had to go through 5 different medicines and still can't figure it out. Heh, at one point, the nurses forgot which medicine to give him, nurses got into a big argument with my dad, finally the surgeon showed up to say the nurses actually did give him the wrong medicine so it was a good thing my dad paid attention. Now, they gave my dad all sorts of free prescriptions and are my dad's best friend. haha. After my dad's experience, I'm starting to become a little weary when I must go to a doctor.

I miss Hardee's. Good place back in the day until new management screwed it all up.

Anyways, done my with my rambling. ^_^ Hope ya feel better man. :banana:
