    Hey Betina!

    God Bless You Today! I have had two petscans, so I have been there done that!

    Yesterday I had a CTScan and Monday a Colonoscopy, checking to see if I am healed enough for my reversal.

    I also found out yesterday after about 6 CT scans I am now allergic to Iodine?! After the Scan my lip looked and felt like I had been punched, it was weird, they made me stay there for an hour after and it went down. So now I officially have an allergy and have to be pre-medicated for all CT's from now on.

    God Bless,

    Liz

    Hi Betina...yup...ain't waiting a pain in tha preverbial! I had my CT today. That's one of the reasons I am on here at 3.40am(oz time).I keep having reactions to the iv contrast. Now I know what hot flashes are...he!he!
    I'll go out in sympathy for yah if you return the favour gal. Even after 3 years this month in NED I can honestly say it don't get a real lot easier. Always the worrier.
    Hey....all the best from us over tha briny...you'll be dancin' next week.
    Cheers, Ross n Jen
