Including chemical cauterization to stop chronic nosebleeds
I've had that! I don't remember if it hurt because that whole bit is a blur, especially after I had to
have my right sinus cavity packed with gauze because an artery had burst
after exposure to toxic mold in the bedroom of our new apartment. Still, the next step was surgery, so it ended well.
Thanks, Steph!
Val, if Steph hadn't shown up, that would have been a good idea. Thank you for using your brain, since mine seems to be at the cleaners.
I think my mom uses and likes it that, Val, but she's not known for her eat-off-they're-so-clean floors, so...

I'm not either, but I'm trying to be better. With two dogs here, I was sweeping every day, and that combined with the hip injury almost did me in. I think if it were easier, I'd do it more often. And I need to be doing it more often thanks to the allergies.
Wow, don't know what happened...
KB did something funky. I think it had to do with ComicPress randomly renaming a future strip and then it...choked on it or something.
Anyway, it's fixed and KB seems to be back up and running. If you tried to look at it earlier and it timed out on you, try again. And sorry.
It isn't as painful as it sounds because anesthetic is applied first. But it's weird to walk around for several hours with a numb right nostril.
Hee. A friend of mine had her cervix numbed for a procedure. She said it was really peculiar walking around being able to tell where her cervix was -- it was like someone had stuck a walnut in her.
...and my doctor is out until Friday. The receptionist isn't willing to give the request to a different doctor in the practice. She's not willing to suggest any other route. She's happy for me to wait until Friday.
I need a nap.

I'm happy to be whapping her upside the head every half hour between now and Friday.
Find a new doctor, Deena. One with a staff who give's a rat's ass for his patients.

The receptionist? WTF?? Where's her medical degree that she can make that call?

Wow. That's so NOT her decision. That's the point where I'd be going to the office, with Aidan and Kara in tow, and demanding to see a goddamn doctor.
No receptionist is qualified to determine whether or not a patient should wait 3 1/2 days for MEDICAL GODDAMN CARE.
Yeah, unfortunately, the doctor's office is on the other side of town and Greg has the car. I am, however, going to find a new doctor.
