Okay...so I figured my fellow PSers would think this is funny.

So yesterday afternoon, I''m sitting in my office and I noticed my pinky finger was sore. I didn''t think much of it. Last night I looked and saw that my pinky finger was crazy swollen. I thought it was weird because I didn''t remember doing anything that would cause it to be all swollen and painful. My knuckle was especially painful.

So I called the dr. this morning. They wanted me to come in today to have it looked at.

Prior to going in, I looked on the internet...and realized that I might have rhumatoid arthritis, lupus and a number of other horrible diseases. Always a good idea, looking at the internet to see what might be causing vague symptoms.

So, I go to dr. As I''m waiting for the dr. to see me, I''m pondering all the things that could be wrong with me. Finally, I see the doc. She looks at my finger...and starts asking me questions about my ering. When I got it, etc. After examining my finger and looking at my hands, she kind of smiles and at me and says I think I know what cause your "finger trauma."

My ering. Yep. The pinky, and particularly the part that is really sore, lines up perfectly with where my ering hits my pinky. Her guess was that the ering must have jabbed my pinky. Probably when I was opening a door, or when I was walking our dogs...

So yeah. On the plus side, she wrote it out as finger trauma due to large engagement ring.

And of course, I showed everyone that would look at my distorted finger...and now I''m going to have to explain it to everyone...

LOL...I''m sorry about your finger though. And keep that note! It can be a family heirloom that can be passed down, giving the future a glimpse of their diamond obsessed ancestor!

I''m glad you guys got a kick out of it. My FI definitely got a good laugh out of it...As did my parents and a number of friends that I called earlier in the day to ask if they would still be my friend if had to get a pinky-echtomy.

I''m just a special kind of fool really.

And I should clarify...the ring is in a very high setting...halo and prong set above that...so I think the problem may be the halo, not the huge-osity of the diamond!

Too Funny! I wonder if there is a support group for FTDTLER? Perhaps PS needs one.

I chuckled out loud with the "yeah, great idea searching the internet for answers to vague symptoms" By the time you are done, you are dying of every known disease/condition to man. I've learned that the hard way!

Yet, I'm still here even though I was diagnosised with STT (shoe too tight)
