I'm so sorry you're having a rough time. I hope a nap will help, and the rest of the day will see only improvement. Hang in there. You rock.

Aww, Yabbit. I'm sorry. Hopefully the nap will help. At least you're finished with the IV (I hate those things!). Take it easy.....you've earned a rest.....and when you're feeling better treat yourself to something nice.

i didn't know you were going thru the SM char.
i hope the arm feels better. give it 48 hrs for the swelling. try some cool compresses.

i hope you feel better soon.

Listen to the nurse, Lambchop! (I prefer brandy with a splash of Chambord.)
