What’s funny is that the color that we’re going to change to will mean that the color of our walls will finally match the pottery we got as our ‘wedding china’ 33 years ago!

We’re trying to decide what color to choose to cover up Hunter Green.

10 years ago with black and white tile, it ~seemed~ like a good idea...

Well, I’m back.

I went in at 7:45am and got injected with contrast for my bone scan. Then I went and had an EEG. They glued all these little electrodes to my head and then had me lay there and look at strobe light, then hyperventilate, then sleep. Amazingly, I was able to do all three.

Then, I went and had my bone scan. They scanned my whole body, then went back and scanned the area where I hurt.

Then, I went in for the MRI and MRA. I asked if the MRI was going to be with contrast and they said “No, it isn’t ordered that way.” So they did them. They pulled me out of the machine and told me not to move, the radiology tech needed to talk to the radiologist. So a few minutes later he comes in and says the radiologist thinks he sees something on the MRI and they want to get it done with contrast after all.

So that is what happened...they injected a contrast into my vein and he said that it would show a tumor by increased blood flow or an eschemic (dead) area by decreased blood flow. Then they put me back in the machine and the tech patted me on the arm...which I thought was nice.

They didn’t tell me anything...I wonder if it showed anything?

I’m going to call here in a bit to see if I can find out. Get them to fax me my reports.
