it was rainy this afternoon, I got drenched biking home from work. soaked to the core.

so when i went to do my shot, before my shower, my skin was cold. and when the needle went in i didn't feel anything. and it occurred to me that, hey, i could ice the skin before cleaning with alcohol to numb the skin for the bigger needles later on in the cycle. i wasn't even that cold.  and it really changed the sensation. good to know. 

side effects: some nausea today. random unprovoked nausea. it was icky. it went away quickly after a few deep breaths. my appetite felt more normal today. still lots of energy. my bowel movements aren't normal. they've been changing density all week from thick to thin. i blame the lupron, cause i haven't changed my diet. its easy to blame the lupron.
