Being a medical student at the GP is always a bit of a gamble. Sometimes they give you a flat YOU ARE PARANOID ABOUT YOUR HEALTH glare, and sometimes (today) they use your own flu shot as an opportunity to teach you about giving injections. I'm not sure how he knew to ask me what I'm studying, I was very careful not to say 'I think I have an impingement syndrome because I have a painful arc on abduction and more pain on external rotation'. I just said 'my shoulder hurts when I lift it outwards'.
I made the appointment last week and the pain's almost gone now, anyway. Thank you, ibuprofen. He thinks I somehow inflamed the long head of biceps tendon, and I have no idea how.
Him: So what sports do you normally play?
Me: Um. That is -- that is an excellent question. Yes.

I am sooo behind on those few TV shows I allow myself to actually care about. Sigh.
(At this point, this is basically...White Collar and Bones. And Big Bang Theory.) The only things I've watched in yonks are QI and old episodes from the final season of of Scrubs.
I -- should not be online. I am taking the morning off from the eye hospital to get my flu shot and do some cardiology notes, and because next week is going to be the horror week from hell and I am trying some prophylactic de-stressing. It's not working too well. Maybe I should not be attempting to de-stress by substituting more study for being-at-hospital, but at this point 'study' is options A-Y in my list of What I Should Be Doing At Any Given Moment, with option Z being, appropriately enough, 'sleep'.
