Default Hi devora
glad the injection went OK> It sounds like it did hurt some. Why is it with some patients there are no side effects, and others it really hurts. Even with the same conditions. Keep the ice on, and I hope you have a decrease of pain for a long long time. ginnie

Cuz everybody's different. Doctors, assistants, nurses, patients.... and sometimes conditions aren't all the same - different locations, different needles, different drugs, different techniques (which goes back to people again!) That's why medicine is both a Science and an Art! (And why some bad experiences shouldn't necessarily sour us on all doctors/medicine forever.)
