MDJunction to me

peasha"This has been one of the most supportive places I have ever been. I found MDJ by mistaking looking for drs to help me with my many health issues and since that day over a year ago I have found a tight nit little family that keeps me going when the times are tough and offers me a place of retreat to share my successes and failures with others. I get to see the humor and seriousness of what I experience as well as the resources to learn about my health conditions. Thanks MDJ" (peasha)

I get an injection tomorrow morning. and I have had a ton of them so I should be a pro. But I am nerovus for this one. I had a awful night mare then when they put me to sleep I wasnt really really asleep and felt everything but was just drugged up enough that i couldnt talk. So know I am a little freaked out. I know it might sound silly but for some reason I am.

It's normal to be nervous. I've had lots of them too all with no sedation. It's really not that bad. It's not great of course but it's not too bad. Very quick.

Wow! What a nightmare! I can understand how that could make you scared. Just tell yourself before hand- it'll be just fine, I'm gonna get through it okay and then I'm gonna feel much better.

I've never had any sedation either. Consider yourself lucky on that aspect!
