Whatever you say doctor...

We didn't make it to this week's appointment unscathed.  Last Thursday night we had a replay of what I described in the last entry.  Thus another night of transfusions in the ER.  Routine appointment Monday of this week and then an appointment with an ENT yesterday.

Turned out to be a long wait.  After an hour and a half we still hadn't seen the doctor (in the end we never did see the doctor we were scheduled to see) and then a different doctor came in - a young, handsome, male doctor sporting a Justin Bieber hair cut.  Well let's just say a spoonful of sugar does still help the medicine go down because Miss Annie was quite the attentive patient from that point on.  A nose spray that evoked blood curling screams from Annie when done in the ER now came with a scream that instead sounded like her singing a note in a song.  She allowed him to do that spray three different times.  God help the woman in the ER who did it, she would have been torn to shreds had she tried it again.

Nothing troublesome was found in her nose but we did learn some new hygiene things to try and keep her blood vessels from cracking.  Annie has been following the doctor's instructions to a T.  We're always happy to be hopeful that things will get better so that's what we'll do.  Next appointment a week from tomorrow.
