well, had the scans today not too long ago. bad news somewhat, it turns out my fear of needles is nothing compared to the level of actual physical nausea I apparently feel anytime an IV is in me. like, this is the first time my spirits have been down significantly and it's because I have to use IVs on chemo.
the bone scan was boring at first; it's just 20 minutes you have to lie perfectly still. however they then rescanned my head UH OH but he showed me the scan and kind of accidentally hinted that they were just checking and it doesn't look like it's in the bone. on googling,

but yeah my spirits are pretty low. I really can't do IVs like this, I gotta look into getting a port inserted or sedation.
spirits low, men forced to eat horses.
