You are correct. My sinus infection was no biggie, they checked me out and I was out of there.

Here specifically things like replacing a joint is fucking long, though. You know, grandma needs a hip joint replaced? Come back next year, bye. By then the other leg she uses to kind of make up for the bad one will also be fucked. Thanks.
My sister had that with her ankle. It got twisted, couldn't snap back into place and turns out, some of the ligaments were ripped a bit. She had to wait a few hours when you could see she was fucked. Then the doc called in a bunch of med students to see how to put it back in place, which he FAILED, but he kept trying to show the kiddos. By the time my sister was almost passing out she very firmly told him to fucking stop, because the issue felt like it was bigger than just snapping the ankle back in place.
