My Apologies

5/27/2010

Darling Readers,

I apologize for the lack of stories this week. I'm recovering from a cortisone shot gone bad. (Which is redundant to say, since all cortisone shots I get seem to ruin my life - at least temporarily... until the next one.)

So my right arm is out of commission. See, I am not always right, but somehow I'm still always write.

Are you certain it was the shot that went wrong? I too had a bad couple of days after watching the Sex and the City Movie (2). I think the systems are similar to the ones you could be blaming on the shot.
Systemic Side Effects
Affecting your entire body, not just the location where the cortisone was given.

• Elevated Blood Sugar
Caused by having to consume copious amounts of sugar items to get me through the movie

• Facial Flushing
Patients may experience flushing sensation and redness of their face. This reaction is more common in intelligent women who quickly realize they shouldn’t be watching the movie. This can begin within a few hours of the injection and may last for a few days, or within 30 minutes of the movie commencing.

• Pain
Some patients have discomfort after the injection and may experience an increase in pain 24 to 48 hours after being treated. This usually subsides quickly and can be aided with an ice pack and anti-inflammatory medication. A bottle of wine after watching the movie to remove all memories of having watched it.
