I hope it doesn't get as big as the last one, or last as long. Still, I can't grumble, as the lidocaine (hope that's the right name) did it's job, and I didn't feel the IV going in which made me happy. |

Do it right the first time or get someone else to do it. Though that does not apply to giving a needle in a moving vehicle!! When we were learning to give IM needles the girl giving me one threw it in like a dart! Good thing it was in the tush or I'd of decked her!! |
