PET Scan!

I had a PET scan today.  I hope they only find the fish I have. I don't have a dog and we got rid of the cats a few years ago.  Seriously though the test went as good as can be expected.  It is difficult waiting a few hours for all the Injections through the IV.  Then the 1 hour countdown for you body to "suck up" the Sugar and radioactive molecules.  After the hour they hook you up to the contrast die which at this point i'm sort of used to.

The first pass at the test had a glitch so they started over to get a good scan.  Since they play any music you want I didn't really mind the extra time.  So the test is done and now we wait.  One bit of news I did receive is that white blood count is still low.  My nurse was very concerned.  So until we meet with the Doc next Thursday we wait and wait and wait!

  1. Waiting is the worst, isn't it? Praying the time goes fast and the results are encouraging. We all send our love from Iowa. We continue to lift you up before the Great Physician, our Lord and Savior.
