I went to see my GP this morning for a steroid injection into my knee. It was a very big needle and oh boy did it hurt. It also set my teeth on edge as I felt the needle scrape on the underside of my kneecap.
I got by with several sharp intakes of breath and managed to say "Gosh, this is more painful than I thought."
When he had pulled the needle out, my GP looked thoughtfully at the tray the syringe had been on, picked up a second syringe and said "Ah, I forgot to give you the local anaesthetic first."
Do I get a sticker and a lolly for being brave?

Ooooouch! I think a big sticker :)
I had steroid injections on both of my shoulders yesterday. I have had them before, general ones and in both my hips which didn't hurt but had been told how painful shoulders ones could be. I could feel it but not painful though they were nice and put anaesthetic in - I could hear them chatting amongst themselves (three of them) about how you can put it in but don't have too, hoping they would opt for the putting it in!
I'm waiting on an MRI scan on my more screwed knee to see what they are going to go about that, will make sure they are anaesthetised up if they opt for steroids for that!
