After a crazy few days where the fridge broke (I opened it and felt warm air rush out. Also the thermometer read 15 degrees celsius...), all my precious and expensive
anti-TNF injections had to be thrown away, and I ended up phoning the injection company several times a day, I finally got a batch of new jabby things.

So on Saturday night, three days after I should have had all those
antibodies in my own body, really tired from work, and with half an eye
on the TV while grabbing a lump of stomach to inject, this happened...

| Ladies and gentlemen, I give you... a bruise! |

The anti-TNF forums are full of people comparing photos of their battle scars, but this is my first proper bruise as a result of self-injection, though site-specific swelling the size of tennis balls was a frequent occurrence before I discovered the miracle-working benefits of cheapo anti-histamines. I sort of feel quite proud. I don't really know if it could have been avoided, but I probably shouldn't have been watching Pirates of the Caribbean at the same time...
