IV Solumedrol Treatment Day1

Well, putting the IV in was a chore… Mary was a doll though, very patient, kept it fun and didn’t get upset that my veins kept poping.  After 6 attempts we finally decided to just go anti-cubital, sheesh. Well, can’t say she didn’t put in a great effort! I am hoping that [Read more]
