I can not begin to tell you how much that shot hurt. I almost starting bawling like a baby right there in his office.

Has anyone else had that before?
I have. I am assuming it was cortisone? (I love cortisone...the miracle drug if you don't abuse it). Ask him/her to mix it with some numbing agent next time (if there is a next time)....then they give it a little at a time and the numbing agent helps. That's what my doctor used to do...out of compassion because she knows it hurts a lot.
