I am pretty new to this board and I enjoy here. Beside the few people that got made at me for posting on a old post. I just thought it was a great figure and lost tack of the date on it. But that is not the reason for this post.
In April of last year, I got injured at work and it took almost 4 months for me to get real doctor. I injured my arm working unloading a plumbing sully truck on a 38 floor job. The injury happened when one of those black metal straps went into my arm. I went the worker comp clinic at got 20 stitches. I kept having to go every week for follow ups and it never got better. The company never filed with the insurance company. The clinic kept calling the safety guy for our company. It took to mid July for me to see a doctor. By that time my arm hurt bad from having to use it at work or else I wouldn't have a job. Making a long stories short. I had to go to therapy twice a week for 2 months and it was not getting better. My boss tried everything he could to get me to quit. I played his game and finally he wrote me up 9 times in one day for going to therapy and the doctor.
I had to get a lawyer and fight for my benefits. I had no money coming in for almost 2 months from Sept-Nov. I needed surgery on my arm and finally had it on the 4th of last month. Since the surgery I have been super sore and my arm got puffy. I went last Wednesday because it started leaking. Well today I was told I have a staph infection and have to see a specialist right away. I am freaking out. I am not sure how bad it is or nothing. Has anyone one of you ever had this infection? I am looking for some insight on it.
I know this is not about wrestling, but just needed to ask. Thanks for reading.
