So, I started taking Enbrel last month. The Specialist lied! It doesn't sting. It burns like HELL! And not only that. It gave me a damn headache, the three out of four times I took it. And I mean a bad headache. It hurt so much I thought my eyes were about to pop out of my skull and my brains would leak out the sockets. Ok that sounds kinda disgusting. Dizziness I can handle. I can just sleep through that. You can't sleep through a headache unless it's one of the mild ones. Those headaches wore worse than a migraine.
Tomorrow is shot day. Or today rather. *lol* As I call it. But I don't have the medicine cause they said it has to come all the way from Temple. I've been trying to get since Monday. I swear they're doing this on purpose. So hopefully I can pick them up today, maybe in the afternoon, before I take my shot tonight.
I also had to get blood drawn. Now it's no secret that I hate needles but that crazy nurse who stuck me(!), stabbed me with one of those big needles. What is it with nurses thinking the bigger, the better? My arm hurt most of yesterday. I swear there should be better ways to get blood drawn. You know, a simple way where you don't feel it at all.
