Diagnosed myself

The day the pain was getting stronger and stronger I had to know what was going on. I studied online and came up with an acute pilonidal abcess. My friends laughed and told me I wasnt a doctor but they didnt understand my pain or that every word on the site was me!! Even the "the's"! I didnt get an X-ray when I was told to because a broken tailbone was the diagnosis. I told the doctor what I had and he refered me to a surgeon. This is all new but Im learning. I SIT TOO MUCH on a hard surface every day.
