Yeah, so I went to the free clinic yesterday because I've been having chest pains that have been bugging the hell outta me (hiccups are murder). I learned that I have Pleurosis, which is where the liquid that acts as a lubricant when the lungs inflate and deflate during breathing (so the pleural surfaces can easily glide over one another) may be absent! So yep, my lungs are inflamed 0_o
So the doctor gave me some meds to take three times a day for three days (then two times for three days, then one for three days...), and some gross gel-coated stuff that I take twice a day. Sad thing is, the pharmasist who labled the bottles wrote in cursive, so I have no clue what I'm taking.
Oh, and after that checkup, my mom was going to the labs at Mercy to get tested for mono, and I came along just for the heck of it. I didn't know that I would need blood drawn for said test. I was such a baby. I almost started crying.
On our way out was funny, tho.

Me (pointing and whispering): Hot doctor! Hot doctor!
Mom: Wanna go ride around in the elevators?
Me: :0
