Ouch

Went into hospital this morning to have the first injection of some lovely cytotoxic drugs. Not for fun you understand…
It was slightly worrying in that the initial prescribing procedure involved opening a sealed packet with red & white tape and then pulling out the syringe covered in hazardous warnings symbols.
Then a small army of healthcare professionals agreed it was all correct, so I started rolling my sleeve up in preparation. Oh no, they said, it has to go into your arse. Bugger I thought.
Oh well; 1 down and only 7 more to go.
