more cortisone...
went to see the dermatologist this morning since my big scar had been oozing a bit (yeah, ewwww) and i was getting worried about it. so she took a look and thinks it's a secondary effect of the cortisone and not to worry too much. since i had an appointment for next friday for more cortisone, she had me cancel that and took care of it today. i counted 18 little pricks. that part didn't hurt too much but what did sting a bit was when the cortisone actually went in. she said it was a lot harder to inject the cortisone this time since the scars had gotten more keloidy and full of collagen. yuck.
so now i'm shopping for bungapads (or similar!) to wear when i'm skating so there's not too much direct rubbing on my poor little scars. er, poor big scars.

oh yuck! what i don't get, if a keloid is caused by needles and irritation, won't a billion shots make it worse?!
i'll keep my keloids and avoid the pricks. haha! funny.
what's weird is that i don't think i have any feeling directly on the scar. kinda disconcerting, but eh, not a part that needs much feeling anyway.
