 I am having my surgery on the 21st and the only injections i will be getting is while i am in the  hospital.  Every place is different.... you'll do fine

Dr. Shina prescribed 10 days worth of supplements for me ... I think that's the standard deal. They do sting a little bit, but they're really not bad.  The anticipation of the needle poking is worse than the pain itself.

i think i remember him saying 10 days.  i have also heard of other doctors with this same protocol.  How long did it take you to get scheduled from the date of your insurance approval?
