Pin Cushion

It is official. I am showing tracks in my arm. Due to the fact that I need to be careful in order to avoid lymphedema, I only have one arm available for blood pressure, blood draws, and injections. In the past two weeks I have had 4 injections in my left arm, 2 blood draws from my left arm plus 2 extra from where they couldn't thread an IV, and 2 injections in my mouth (I had a cavity filled, but still....). That is 10 injections in two weeks. I have had 6 scans and seen 5 doctors. I don't mean to complain, but this is excessive!
