Attack of the Pinched Nerve II
This time... it's business casual

Yes, the pain in my neck that plagued me for about a month last year has returned. Some of you may recall the ordeal I went through last year when I went to the hospital in hopes of a solution to the problem. Those of you who aren't familiar with these details can read up on it in the Pissing Vinegar entitled "The Pinched Nerve That Became A Social Commentary" somewhere on this site. The Coles notes: I went to the hospital at 4am after being unable to sleep. Dressed in a quickly thrown together ensemble, I threw on a ball cap and left. When the "doctor" saw me, I'm convinced he saw a pill junkie looking for a fix, and practically turned me away at the door.

Anyway, I'm off to the hospital again. Only this time, I just stepped out of the shower, put on a pair of cargos and a golf shirt. I thought that, since I have the opportunity, I might as well have a little experiment in terror. My guess is that, this time, I may get more than a random list of home remedies as a cure to what ails me.

I'll let you know what happens, if and when I get back.
