A dreaded doctors appointment

I think I can speak for most of us when I say that not many people like going to doctor’s appointments.

They can be awkward, embarrassing, and depending on the state of your health even terrifying, however especially if you’re expecting disappointing news, then I have been having some pain in my shoulder for many weeks now every time I exercise I couldn’t pinpoint the exact cause of it and so my wife suggested I go and see a doctor for it, but as if I wasn’t already anxious enough, when I arrived at the office to see the doctor the staff and environment didn’t help our nervousness at all.

The staff wasn’t overly friendly, they just had a nonchalant ‘I don’t care’ style of attitude that seemed like they didn’t want to be there. I was at least hoping to get some nice cool air from the air conditioning plan but nope, I couldn’t have that either. I looked up at the air vent only to see that there was no cool air coming out of it. I asked why at the front desk and they seemed worried by my question, but then told me that because of the age of the air conditioning system, it had stopped working a week ago and until they had it fixed there would not be any heat or air conditioner. I assume the only great news that came out of this visit was that when I finally did get to see the doctor she told me that my shoulder was just strained for being over exercised and that I should rest it for a while, I was glad it was nothing bad but I would have been much happier if I could have had some A/C to help calm my nerves Normally the coolness can help soothe me.
