IVs in my hands
Aug. 16th, 2013 09:28 amI don't remember much of this dream anymore, but I do remember that somewhere along the line, a doctor started putting these long, super-thin IV needles into the backs of my hands. She (I think it was a she, anyways) started more on the knuckle side of my hands and made the IVs go straight towards my wrists, right under the skin. She did several in a row right next to each other on both my hands. This process was not at all comfortable, although after a while I started to not feel them. I believe it was because I was getting some kind of painkiller from the IVs that were already in.
This is the point where things start making even less sense. I don't remember the specifics of what I was doing in the dream after that, aside from it seems I was going places and doing things. When I would move my hands, the IVs would hurt like heck because I was disturbing them. Sometimes it would just be from movement itself, and other times because I was sort of pulling against the limits of the thing tubes attached to the IVs.
I'm not sure if this was going on because I was actually supposed to be lying on a hospital bed somewhere and just imagining going around doing stuff, or if it was some kind of virtual simulation in my head, or what. The thing I remember most is the pain, and it was exactly the sort of pain one would expect in that situation. (In real life I've experienced having IVs in my arms and one or two in the back of my hand but never more than one at the same time.)
I don't remember anything else, but the memory of the pain stayed with me after waking and really made me wonder what was going on in that dream.
