Now is crunch time.  ( Actually, crunch time was about 15 minutes ago when I fell up my stairs and crunched my shoulder and then my nose!)  But I finally have my illegal drugs to take when I finish this.  Everybody tells me that I will virtually go right to sleep, so that is my crunch time.  Will it work for me, and is it the turnaround moment that I have been hoping for this last week or so?  I was able to have a nearly normal work day today, but the pain is still my companion and I want it to go away.  I am anxious to move on.  I really should have gone to a doctor before today, but finally I did so now we will see if it will do the trick.  There really is lots riding on it.  I have tasks piling up that I haven't felt like I could do.  So now I have basically 2 tests:  one will the medicine work, and two can I do all of the rehabilitation that will need to go along with it because bursitis is a stubborn thing and has more then pain to it.  I will need to coax my flexibility along, but only if the pain will allow me to.

Time to move on and see what happens.  Stay tune!
