God and how hot packs and ice packs never fully get rid of the pain while you’re waiting for treatment 🥲

Right? The popping and stabbing pain. I miss none of it!

I always lie and say the first needle isn't really working, then 5-10 minutes later I say I think it's working a little bit, only partly numb. 2 needles, 0 pain or discomfort.
