Hey Pink?

Have you tried lidocaine before they do the stick? My infusion center uses it and it makes the stick much less painful for me. I never used to use it and one of the nurses asked if I wanted it. I tried it and found the stick to be a lot easier.
I would take the stick without it to get the Ty anyway, but it does hurt less when they have to go fishing.
