I started the shots yesterday...I had to go get them from the pharmacy before they closed, and since i am working crazy hours trying to get out of here, i dragged my staff with my to go get them - and dinner - since my favorite place is literally next door - Barnabys. So, I got the shots (which I hate) and the salad (which I love) so I feel like it all balanced out!!
But then I realized whyI hate these things. i gave a shot last night, and the bruise already started appearing this morning. Then this mornings shot was like leaking - GROSS. You have to put in all the fluid and then the air bubble, which supposedly helps seal it so it will stay in your "subcutaneous" skin. (don't think I said that right, but whatever. Let's be honest - you inject this into your "stomach" which is really just "grab some skin and pull away from your body", otherswise known as fat. I think i have so no worries about where to stick that sucker!)
Anywho, so now I have these matching little bruises on my stomach - one on both sides. This is going to get ugly. I feel like I am bruising worse now than I did before when I did these things.
Oh, well. And I called the doctor since he only ordered 14 days of these things so I could have a stash. And I found 2 from the last time, so I have a few back ups...plus these things are EXPENSIVE. so I want to get my money's worth. Just the co-pay for the 14 days were like $50.
And got a great message from the doctors office that can't get my number right. It was classic. She went through the whole file and basically said she couldn't find me - even though all the numbers she quoted were right. AWESOME. She either just can't dial right or, well, we won't go there because it just isn't nice. I have left 2 messages with the right number - but she just can't seem to call it and don't think that I don't call multiple times a day and NEVER get to talk to anyone!
