Arrived at the Hospital at 9:05.
Had to wait 15 minutes as there was a big queue today, but, from everyone waiting, i was the 2nd one to get attended to.
While i was waiting, 2 bitche… erm, ladies, started telling MS stories.
Basically, only about themselves. They didn’t care about the disease itself, only about their own stories.
I’m fine with that. However, some hilarious, yet depressingly ignorant sentences were spoken:
- “I do not know which kind of Interferon i am taking.” (maybe it’s the McDonalds brand, you fat whore.)
- “The injections made me gain weight”. (I’m pretty sure it was McDonalds again, as the injections normally make people LOSE weight)
- “I have always had a big bone structure”. (Like i said, you should eat less and stop blaming the injections and your bone structure)
So, after these 15 minutes of verbal abuse, Nurse Cristina took me to her office.
I had to sign a paper before blood was drawn, which explained the pros (group study) and cons (none, as far as i could see).
As usual, she complimented my veins (fat, yummy and easy to drill) and then she extracted TEN “smallish” VIALS of blood.
Yes, “smallish”. They were not huge, but they were not small, either. Blue vials, purple vials, yellow vials, there was blood all over. My wrist/hand got numb, which, according to her “was normal, due to the big quantity of blood being extracted”.
I got weighed, i got measured, questions were asked.
I told her my MRI wasn’t scheduled yet, so she took note to speed it up.
After the MRI, i must call her, and my injections will start.
I left the Hospital at 9:41 and just felt like walking. I was a bit dizzy, and she forced me to drink some milk before i left.
Walked for 10 minutes and got fed up with it, as i was being rushed with something, doesn’t matter what.
Grabbed a cab and went to Vasco da Gama to buy some new headsets. Still rushing.
Left Vasco da Gama at 10:21.
Rushed home.
Had to reply to 2 emails halfway. The HTC might be all kinky and sexy, but my Blackberry is still the fastest cellphone i ever had in regards to speed of use.
Still rushing.
Arrived home at 10:40.
Tired.
Headache.
Body hurts.
Cancelled lunch with Mbd because of headache and tiredness. (and the fact i’m waiting for an UPS delivery.)
*need rest, end of today’s report*
