If it looks like a horse... (the diagnostic appointment)

[existence_ltd]

I came in and he felt my legs and anesthetized about a 2-square-inch area around the spot where he wanted to gauge the pressure inside the fasciae then stuck me with the gauge. It really didn't hurt much, although there was always a sudden jolt whenever the needle pierced the fascia (we couldn't anesthetize anything but the skin). I didn't squirt,

This is kind of scary, Chris-- I didn't realize you could start doing permanent damage to your legs with this.

We'll take it easy this week, and I'll be happy to give your legs a rub at the end of each day until your next appointment, if it helps.

That. Sucks. Arse.

All that suffering and bleeding for just another day of frustration.

heh.. and now I go to the dentist this afternoon!

How 'bout that.

I agree with Sarah... It does sound scary.

If there's anything I can do to help out, please let me know.

[existence_ltd]

You can watch a funny zombie movie with me tomorrow night would help :-D

[superkittin]

Aw jeez... That's a pretty hefty request! However, because it's you, I suppose I can do that.

When and where?

[existence_ltd]

Either come with us at 5-ish tomorrow or be at Sarah's condo around 7 tomorrow night and my poor poor legs might feel a little better :-D
