DANCING!!!!!

Thank you for the update, dearest!!!!

 

And I reread your question:  

The reason to keep your arm up normally with a CT for the chest/breast is to move all of the 'fatty bits' (breast tissue...*grin*) to as flat a position as possible.  The less tissue the CT has to go thru, the better picture it creates....

 But, as far as the pediatric needle....I always insist, unless there is an explanation as to why not.  Some test deliveries require a faster flow, but for the rest....if it is a choice, even for Lab blood draws, I ALWAYS choose pediatric!  (Makes the tech be more careful, too...harder to hurt me when finding the vein....*grin*...it's all about ME, as usual....*grin*)

Hugs, Kathi

to celebrate... Please update us when possible.

Gentle hugs, Olga
