Went to my rheumatologist's office today. He put me on a new anti inflammatory since the one I am currently on doesn't seem to be doing much of anything. He had blood drawn and some tests run again. The nurse who did it this time was rough. Ouch!!!
Worst a blood draw has ever hurt me and I have had plenty of them. i don't know if it's cause I didn't drink much water before I went so it was hard to get some or what. Oh well, at least it's over. At least my rheumy is good. He seems to really listen to me and that is not always the case with docs.
