Life wouldn't be the same without...

my annual trip to casualty!

I've been to casualty roughly once a year since about 3rd year in high school. Now let me make it clear, I have never actually had anything serious wring with me, my most serious injury was my broken toe, the one that started it all off in 3rd year! But with various sprained ankles and suspected broken bones, I've been to casualty quite a lot.

So what was I there for this time? Well earlier on today in school I jammed my finger between my chair and my desk which was pretty painful, but later on I realised it was quite sore to bend my finger. Okay so it wasn't causing me an excessive amount of pain, but I thought if it was broken and I didn't get it sorted ... well I play the piano so I thought I'd go and get it X-rayed. Turns out it wasn't broken after all, and I can still type so it probably won't be sore for that long.

But I did learn two things from this particular casualty visit - 1. I can go to casualty on my own and 2. Hospitals aren't scary!

An x-ray? is that all they gave you? I would want an MRI and a CT scan and a consultation with an orthopeadic surgeon. What about your bloods, did they run a test?
