HI Paul,

Got my first injection today..

Appointment was for 8:30...I got there at 8:00.

I was the first person but had to wait until 9:00 to get called back. Apparently, they have a Thursday morning meeting and tthat seems to run late.....so all the patients build up in the waiting room. lol

Saw the lady that does joint counts at 9:05
I saw the doc at 9:15
Did the survey at 9:30.
Blood at 9:45
X-rays from 10:00 - 10:15

Wow seemed as if things were going to be ok after all!!!! Wrong!

The PA said that he would have the meds ready by the time the x-rays were done.
Haha ...now why would I bellieve him?
Sure enough, at 11:00 I had to stand in the hallway to flag someone down. Some nice nurse followed up with the PA and made sure that things got moving.
Medication delivered at 11:15
Left at 11:30.

So it still turned out to be a 3 hour appointment.
8:30 - 11:30.

Almost all of the other patients were gone. They claimed that it takes a long time for the "blind" pharmacy to make the med. lol
Maybe that means I got the real thing?

I go back in 2 weeks, than 2 weeks after that......
