I assume it's lidocaine they're shooting me up with. They put it
right below my spine at the tailbone, right where the crack of my
ass starts. It burns like hell. come to think of it, I don't
think it hurt that bad last time I got stitches, so it might just be
the location. The tailbone thing is the location of chronic
pilonital cyst, so it may be like putting salt on an open wound.
