Picture in your mind - lying on an xray table, twisted into what resembles a pretzel and admonished to keep still. Picture in your mind, a person who has a deathly stupid fear of needles used to deliver medications, or vaccines (knitting types are ok) Picture in your mind this person lying in this tortuous position whilst a very pleasant doctor (who might be 30.. might be) sticks 3 needles into the neck, into three facet joints at level C3-4, 4-5, 5-6 and injects steroids into the inflamed nerves and muscles in spasm. Yes, my children, I spent a wonderful afternoon in an exam room yesterday turning into a quivering mass of jello and I will confess to whimpering like a whipped puppy.
Today, it all aches. I keep hoping it's going to help, but thinking about doing it again? Jello, whimpering bowl of, one each.

oooo my, that doesn't sound like good time at all! I'm sorry and hope you're on the mend!
I cease all resemblance of being an adult when people want to stab me with needles and inject things into my body.
Novacaine I take like a pro, because it beats the alternative. And I have tats. But don't anyone dare try to vaccinate me!
Sorry, LAW. I really do feel you there.
