He hit my bone!

I went to have a cortisone shot in my knee today and the rhemy HIT THE BONE!!!  I nearly hit the ceiling when he did that!!!!  I have big bones anyway and heavy legs.  So he had a lot of territory to go into.
But still... OUCH!!!!!

Had enough with the knee pain. Went to emergency finally. After telling my story about 4 or 5 times, the doc said that he believes I had a Bakers cyst that may have burst (hence the sharp stabbing pain in the back of my knee two weeks ago).

He wants me to get an ultrasound at another facility and see the orthopedic surgeon I saw for my accident at work.

So I begin to wonder.... don\'t they have an ultrasound at the hospital?
I was supposed to get a special brace but instead got an Ace tape wrapped around my knee. Didn\'t do much good.

I had to ask about crutches because I couldn\'t walk on that leg.

It felt they were in a rush to get me out of there... at least the technician.

I\'m confused.. is this standard treatment at hospitals?????
