\u00a0Can you be diagnosed with two rare\u00a0blood disorders<\/a>?Apparently, you can.<\/p>\n On Tuesday of this week, I had a doctor\u2019s appointment with my\u00a0oncologist<\/a>. Just the fact that I now call him \u201cmy\u201d oncologist is a little unnerving.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The doctor also told me that within the year, he would probably have to take a sample of my bone marrow and bone to analyze. He was also adamant about us NOT going home and watching a video of it on the internet. He does not know me very well. I cannot look at a cut without losing my lunch. Besides that, someone already told me about their experience having bone marrow extracted. It wasn\u2019t a pretty sight. I do not need to watch a video of it. My mind is a terrible place to be on its own \u2013 without the extra help. Apparently, they are having a problem with people going home and watching videos of procedures and then they are hard to calm down. I asked him how much\u00a0Valium<\/a>\u00a0they give. He made it a point of telling me that they use a local. So much for\u00a0visiting\u00a0Happy Land.Hubby, not being privy to the conversation I had about the bone marrow extraction, asked Doc to explain the procedure. Doc then asked me to sit forward and he poked me in the behind on my pelvic bone. My response was a loud yelp. He poked in the exact spot that I have had a pain for a few weeks. I explained what happened. As if that wasn’t bad enough, he said okay, and did the same thing on the other hip. He then proceeded to tell Hubby about the procedure (holding pressure on my nerve the entire time). Hubby – one thing – payback’s a bitch! That hurt.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
