the gore-free details
Aug. 12th, 2004 06:41 pmWell, to make a long story short, I have a couple of clogged sweat glands in my armpit. They're pea-sized lumps that hurt like hell. On the plus side, it's not serious and a quick course of antibiotics should clear it right up; of course on the minus side I'm probably going to grow a few more gray hairs after spending the night imagining breast-cancer scenarios. Anyway, I'm on the antibiotics now and hopefully all will be well that ends well.
The other half of our medical adventures today involved taking Isaac to get his blood drawn so it can be re-tested for anemia now that he has been taking iron supplements (mostly) for a couple of months. Needless to say he didn't at all care for the vampirish procedure, but he recovered quickly. Still, he firmly rebuffed the phlebotomist's attempts to make friends with him afterward. ;)
Anyway, that's the report, boring though it may be.
