i wanted to share my day at the doctors

alright my appiontment at the band doc was at 11:45 am so i got there 20 mon early hoping to get in a little early. no i was taken in at 1145. I see a doctor come in to the room. i have never seen him befor. he said my doctor had an emergency at the hospital and he was going to see me. i feel very confortable at this piont. i told him that i was upstate and while upthere i had a complete unfilll. he said ok so i guess your getting a fill today. 11:50 i get on that flor.. x ray machine. i had no restiction at all. ok so he lays me back on the machine and starts to feel around for my port. he couldn't feel it so he puts a penny were he believes the port is and uses the x ray to see if he was close. he said yah i am a little close. he takes out a needle. tries going for the port. he said nope the needle is to small. so he takes out this long long needle, i start sweting.he puts the needle in. he can't find the port agien. he uses the x ray agien. says it a little to the left of were i got it now...... to make the story much shorter

5 x rays - a broken needle -not to much blood -pain up the ying yang-and a hour later i finally get a fill, the doctor fish around in my stomach for an hour looking for my port, i wanted to say just stop and get anouther doctor but i didnt want to make him feel bad. - still very unconfortable by my port, but i guess it will go away.

ok i shared my day at the docs, any one ever go through that

But yes, the over 2 hrs it took and the at LEAST 25 pokes was soooo not fun!
