    Well, Debra...when you get finished PETting the CAT, you can come pet MY cats (lol).

    Good vibes I'm sending, dearheart...I found a little trick....I get friendly with the tech, tell her/him how nervous I am...how much I hate the contrast...even make a comment after injection (CT scan) when things heat up....my fav...if it is a woman...'you know, this heat is almost better than s_x!'....most always get a laugh.
    One piece of advice...after all, drink water, water,water, water....
    My last CT scan was like this...
    11am....drink barium redi-cat. 2pm...positioning scans (rads) for my breast 'boost' rads. 2:45pm...whole breast rad (last one). Driving like crazy for 1/2 hour for...4pm CT Scan with...contrast (more rad).
    The NEXT day, cause I didn't drink my normal water flush, I had a mild case of radiation sickness....sigh...no wonder, each of those steps included some form of rads....

    Water, Water, Water, Water, Water

    Special hugs (I KNOW things will be fine), Kathi
