Ack!! Needles
Today Scottish word:
1) aglee
Answer to the last Scottish word:
1) a hack is a crack in your skin that is caused by cold
I don't talk about me having MS here because I really don't want it to seem like I'm fishing for sympathy, but I have decided to mention this.
Today I was taught how to give myself a shot I have to have 3 times a week. It is called Rebif, which is supposed to help reduce the amount of relapses that I might have. The MS nurse that was helping me, was very nice and understanding. Took her time explaining how to do things and than had me try a few times with empty needles before I used a filled needle on myself.
I haven't had any of the symptoms that could have happened, which is a good thing and the injection area looks perfectly fine. Didn't hurt and because of the auto-injector I don't actually see the needle touch me, which I'm not sure if I would have a problem with. I have had so many needles it shouldn't, but it might be different if I was doing it myself. Next shot is on Monday, so things should go well than to.
Tomorrow I promise to post some art, I still draw!! lol

You are one sporting gal, on a number of counts! Holding a pinchy scorpion, for one, and a pokey needle for another.
ReplyDeleteQuestion...do you consume aspartame in soft drinks or unsweetened foods?
Here's a word I came across in my dictionary perusals...
reddle
And a sweet bear, no doubt.
No, not sporting, just trying to enjoy life now :)
ReplyDeleteI drink a lot of diet drinks?? why?? lol
I had to go look up what reddle means, not sure if I could use it in everyday conversation, but it might come up in some conversation one day :)
Nice soft bear :) (I'm afraid of it getting dirty if it falls on the floor though :/)
If you do drink a bunch of diet drinks, and they contain aspartame, it's not good for you. It can cause symptoms that mimic MS.
ReplyDeleteDo some searching about it. I hate the thought of you being sick.
