What a gorgeous day! The sun is out and so nice. I got both my cortisone shots in my hips this morning. They hardly hurt, but the after-effect is what's bad. For some reason my left hip rarely hurts the next day, but my right one always hurts really, really bad, much like the pain of a half a dozen tetanus shots would hurt...most of you know how badly they hurt!! I had to wait an HOUR AND A HALF...over half of that in the exam room
wearing these really sexy blue one-size-fits-all paper shorts and it was cold in there! I put my jacket over my legs and laid on the exam table and got a little bit of rest. I don't mind waiting when the doctor is really busy. I understand how they get off schedule, but I heard him in the next room having a lengthy conversation with a couple about their recent Las Vegas trip, their shopping, etc I'm thinking....hmmmmmm. He spent all of 5 minutes with me...jab in the left hip... jab in the right hip...and out the door! Now it's time for the heating pad for the rest of the afternoon!
