D day

I.e. doctor day. Got the results of the MRI today. Not only do I have calcium in my shoulder, but also a partially ruptured tendon. Aoouchhh. No wonder it's been painful. Played the pity card, claiming it's been going on for a long time now and that it's getting to my head, which is true btw, and was sent directly to a specialist. The first doctor warned me though, that an operation this side of Christmas is unlikely. When I got to the next doctor he looked at my screens from the MRI and the X-ray, agreed that I need an operation and said he would do it. "Tomorrow?" I asked, thinking he would laugh me in the face. "No", he said seriously, "there is no way I can fit you in this week". What!?! So now I am scheduled for an operation Wednesday next week. Did I say I love Swiss healthcare?
