Okay so
yeah
Uh I went to the rheumatologist today and he said "YEP your arthritis is back in fulls wing enjoy" and he gave me cortisone injections in both knees. He froze them and then shoved needles through the muscle into the joints. The left knee was almost unbearable, and he had to stop before he was really done, because I couldn't handle it. It was like someone shoving their finger into my bone and pushing hard. I cried. It was pathetic. I wish I coulda handled that better, but he said that probably the old damage there made it more prone to pain errgh.
The right knee was almost pain-free by comparison, which is probably because I never had issues with that one until almost a week ago when it started swelling.
So yeah. He drained fluid out of the knees and popped steroids in. Woo steroids. I go back in a month oh boy I do not want another one of those.
Afterwords I whined at Nick about it and he's like "HOLY JFDSO WHAT CAN I DO??"
so I texted
"I want lunch."
Him: that's a given
Me: and a hug
Him also a given
Me:......and Canada.
So he came over with a map of Ontario, a bottle of maple syrup, and pine-scented air fresheners. I love that boy.
yeah
