I can barely see where the TB injection went in! Woot! I ended up with an extra “test” this week! A bit of a clumsy me story. I dropped a glass on the oddly hard tile floor in my kitchen, and of course it smashed into many pieces. When reaching for the broom behind the garbage can and lifting it over, my hand went directly into the ceiling fan. You can imagine, that did not feel good. (Another odd thing about my kitchen is the enormous and very low ceiling fan). It was bruised, hurt for a few days and then basically felt better. It’s been two weeks and Saturday night I used my hand to push myself up, heard a strange little pop and then felt some strange pain! I went to work the next day where it proceeded to swell and swell and swell until it hurt to use the hand at all. (this is not my fan, just what it felt like)
Of course, I went to my other job right after getting off work from job #1, and it was even more sore. WTH? (and the grammar check wants me to use more sorer… uhh). I asked the nurse to look at it when I had my TB test injection and she sent me straight for an xray! Lol I seem to be able to close the hand a little more today, so I’m guessing nothing is broken. She believes it’s a tendon issue anyway, but we shall see. As long as it heals, all is well.
Back to the testing… TB injection yesterday and I will return on Thursday to have it read. So far, it looks like there is no reaction at all. Let’s hope it stays that way. It's actually hard to distinguish the injection site from the other marks on my arm.
Today after work I go for my Mammogram. So, it’s Boob Squash day. Awesome!
