Small Town Love

Don't worry

For the past 4 months I've had a pain in my collarbone area close to my chest. At first my mom thought I had just pulled a muscle or something minor like that. But as the weeks turned into months and the pain got worse my mom took me to a clinic to get it looked at. While sitting in the waiting room I felt like I was trying to breathe with my hand pressed against my mouth and nose, which I'd gotten used to it been that for about week now. Everyday it would get harder to breathe because of the pain in my neck. It didn't help that I was  nervous, I hated the doctors and always got nervous when I go. I decided I should text Ryan, he's really good at calming me down. Me: Hey, what are y'all doing in shop??) Ryan: Not much. Where are you? I'm lonely!) Me: lol! I'm at the doctors getting my chest/neck looked at.) Ryan: Well that's good.) Me: Yea. But I'm actually really nervous. I mean like what if it's something more serious that's what we think?) Ryan: Don't worry, love. Every will be fine, ok?) Me: you're right. I have to go. I'll text you later.) Ryan: Ok) I went back to the small room in the hall and waited for the nurse. When she came in she had a few questions for me. "How are you feeling today?" She asked in a way to overly happy voice. "Fine." I said. Lately I've been trying to keep my talking to a minimum because it hurts more when I talk. "Where's most of the pain located?" She continued. I tilted my head back a little and placed my hand the area where my chest and neck meet. "Ok one more question," her voice suddenly had some concern in it " if you had to rate your pain on a scale of one to ten, one being none at all and ten being  severe, where would pain fall?" I thought for a second before holding up six fingers. "Ok the doctor will be here in just a minute" she said as she walked out of the room. When the doctor came in he did the basic check up things and when he went to check my breathing, he asked me if it was hard to breathe or if it hurts when I breathe. I nodded my head yes. "Ok well the pain could be caused by a number of things, but to make sure it's not something very serious I want to go ahead and draw some blood to be sent to the lab and run a few test. Once we get those back, if theirs nothing then we'll do some x-rays. Sound good to you." The doctor asked and I nodded my head. "Ok, I'll be right back to draw your blood." He said standing up from his stool. When he came back he got ready to take my blood. I looked away as he took the needle and stuck into the inside bend of my elbow. Within a few seconds he was done. "Ok. Well I'll get this to the lab, and give you call in a few weeks when I get it back. Until then take it easy." The doctor said as he left the room.e and my mom left the clinic and as soon as I got to the car I text Ryan again. Me: Just finished at the doctors. Still don't what wrong but hey did take blood to send to a lab to get tested for a few different things.) Ryan: Well that good. But please don't worry about it too much, you're going to fine.) Me: Ok, I won't.) Ryan: want to come over to my house later to work on homework?) Me: Id love to!)
