Doc called back, and all's well Mood
Friday, January 16, 2009

The doc called this morning and said that the injection-site reaction I had to my Humira is "not uncommon."  (The area is much less red today and no longer raised, thank goodness.)  He said I could go ahead with the next scheduled injection but to have some cortisone cream handy (as Dawn mentioned--thanks, Dawn).

 

I'm a little scared about next time.  Depending how much anxiety I have, maybe I'll drive down to the doc's office and have the nurse give me the injection.  Or maybe I'll just have a drink beforehand to relax myself ;-)

    I know how you feel. Ice also really helps when it's red. Hugs.
