@haidensmommy021512, I thought it was too! My friend just told me it wasn't.
Ahh thanks u just scared the crap out of me^ I thought it was a shot 😢
It's an IV so after they put it in you have a tube in your back connected to the IV bag which drips the drugs into the tube and into your spine
how's in your spine and stays there's you can't get out of bed either. You can get a IV drop that goes into your iv port. it just makes you loopy though.
