I have to try and get some sympathy today since it didnt work on dh, lol!
I have had this suspicious spot on my 3rd finger left hand since January 07. Well it started out like a blood blister so I didn't pay much attention to it. :booboo Well as time went on it started to "erupt" out of the finger. (i wont go into the nasty details) Well EVERYONE told me I better go to the dr. So I went to M.E.A. (like an urgent care clinic) and the dr there said "no way, you have to go to a hand surgeon to have him look at it, its too close to tendons to have something done here."
Fine, they called with the appointment and I made it a point to make sure this was just a consult and NOT surgery today. "Oh no Mrs Black, he will just talk to you today and then schedule surgery." W-R-O-N-G!!!! :slap
We got in the office and he had all his tools all over the table. :nurse: Well I told him I wanted to be out for it, no local. Then DH (who I'm still not speaking to) :mad: said "honey we cant afford that type of surgery and we both need to get back to work." OOOOOOOKKK, now I see how it's gonna be so I agree to it and IMMEDIATLY start crying like a baby!!! (i know, i know what a baby!):bawling: So he numbed me up, dug the spot out (which now I will have a hole in my finger for 3 weeks) and wrapped me up. All, for ONLY $649.00!!! Imagine if I would have been put under for it!
Well long story short, the shot to numb the finger hurt the worst. I am now at work and typing one handed. I just had to tell everyone about my terrible day.
So when I get home its pain pills and off to bed for me!! :tobed
(not much of a tough biker chick today, huh?? LOL)
