Muchas Cosas

I go to the doctor

It is Friday 13 and my shoulder feels better but still hurts. After I leave from Usulutan on my way to San Miguel I decide to just make San Miguel and call it a short day and find a doctor. The first thing I do is find a place to stay and I do it is a nice little bed and breakfast type of place. $20 for the night which is a little expensive considering I had been paying $8 but it is nice and it has a.c. and includes breakfast. I decide to treat myself. So off to find a doctor. I find one who can see me today he is an internist his name is Dr. Bustillo. Wow! talk about the difference in the level of care. We talked for about 45 minutes while he took my history and examined my shoulder. He said he wanted to run some tests and take some Xrays. So we did the old blood and urine tests and sent me with his receptionist to have some Xrays done. Actually she was fairly cute. I had 2 Xrays taken and we went back to the office. We return to the office and about 10 minutes after we return the doctor returns with the results from the blood and urine tests. The Xrays turn out negative, that is there is nothing broken or out of place, no bursitus nothing. Then we go over the other tests and I learned all sorts of good stuff about myself. So he prescribes some muscle relaxers and Im on my way. So how much did all this cost? Doctor: 30, Xrays 16 for two prescription$33. I don´t know what that would have cost in the U.S.but I´m sure it would have been in the hundreds. I can´t keep my eyes open I will continue later with muchas Cosas2.
