I got my second set of Killer Death Injections of Doooom this morning.
As before, I pinched myself awfully hard during each one to distract myself from the pain-and-wrongness sensation. (Last time, the welts I made by pinching took four days to fade. Aren't you glad you now know this detail?) Also as before, I have the anaesthetic effect over much of my foot without benefit of actual anaesthesia. Last time, this effect took about a day to fade.
There are dark purplish dots at the entry points where the needle went in. Those haven't faded from last time, so now I look like I have measles or something. If they all stay for seven weeks I won't be able to resist taking a photo of the resultant mess. :-)
If I concentrate really hard I can walk almost-normally with my partially numb feet.

Ah, I didn't realize that. I remember you talking about the hike at Pinnacles but I didn't make the connection as to why that was possible.
Anyone want a rheumatologist? I'm happy to refer.
I have a friend who needs a good rheumatologist, but sadly she is in Ohio. I reeeeeeeally hope she finds a good doc soon.

and from what little research i've done, i don't think we've really tried all that much. i think they just don't want to bother being creative. :P

Yes, I was. Even a mediocre rheumatologist would be a step up for you.
