SCARY!

Last night we had quite a scare with my medications. The past two nights, Jay has had a hard time getting the needle to puncture my skin and the shots have hurt sooo badly. Last night hurt so bad our conversation went like this:
Me: Jay are you using the old vial or new vial of medicine?
Jay: I switched to the new vial because the old vial was going to expire.
Me: It doesn't expire until 2012 (thinking that maybe he didn't read the year and just the date)
Jay: Shows me the vial of the WRONG medication and points out that it expired on October 5th. (PS- The vial he showed me was the medicine that is REALLY thick and goes in my tush through a HUGE needle. It would make sense that the past two nights were difficult to inject because this medication is not supposed to be injected in my stomach)
Me: Totally freaks out because he has been injecting me with the wrong medicine for the past three days! I got very upset and told him this cycle wouldn't work because I've been taking the wrong medication.(insert long lecture on trust, paying attention, waste of money, etc.)

We then walked back to the bedroom and found the old vial of the medicine he should have been injecting me with on the nightstand. He had been using the correct medicine afterall, he just did not put in back in its normal place making it look like he'd used the wrong stuff. Holy Cow. Talk about freaking out. Although everything turned out fine, it was a good wakeup call for us. We both decided we need to be less cavalier about the whole process and pay more attention to what we should be doing :)
