Cortisone?

Late yesterday the Doctor recommended a cortisone injection in my patient's left shoulder, but not until after a visit to the lab for a further blood test to determine whether his blood is too thin. Apparently there is a risk of internal bleeding with the injection. The only problem is getting my patient to the lab. His pain level, even with medication, is not making the thought of transit very palpable. So, we will wait until this afternoon and hope for the best.

On the bright side, the sun is shining in a winter sky and the leaves are gorgeous shades of yellow and red.
