    Had my cat scan today, forgot how dreadful that is since i my veins are so small. Oh yeah, and the "banana shake" was the drink they give you before your cat scan and it is quite awful!!! Just about made the second helping down. But that did make me laugh. After that, my dh took me and my sister to lunch and to the mall. They are practically giving summer clothes away. I bought a blue top and a pumpkin candle.

    I'm hoping
    that you'll have good news when you get results of your ct scan. Sending positive thoughts your way.

    Darn!
    Thought I'd get a good recipe for a banana shake. LOL. Sorry, never had a scan before, so I didn't know it was prep.

    I thought you were enjoying your homemade banana shake too. LOL They gave me the berry tasting crap, and, it was crap. Yuck! I had to drink 2 of those things, one at home and one at the cancer center. Hated that stuff.

    Great that you got to go shopping and got a top and candle. They really are marked down now.

    Keep us updated Meena!


    Hugs, Megan

    Geezzzz
    Yep 0400 is my wake up time. Bedtime around midnight. Oh well. Meena, positive feelings for you. Hate that you have to wait. I sometimes creep done to medical records, sign the hippa consent and get my results. Usually within 48hrs they've read them. I also opened my Christmas presents before Christmas day. I was an expert at retapeing. I'm feeling good about ur scan. Fingers crossed too. Katz

    Katz you can do that? Sign and get your
    report before the doc gives you a copy? I know I have a friend whose a nurse and she looks her stuff up beforehand, but I didn't think I could do that by signing a hippa form. Sweet.

    Meena, I know what you mean about small veins. I don't have a power port so would have to have the dye injected traditionally.....glad it's over for you. Keeping you in my prayers.

    Hugs, Judy :-)

    You can get your reports
    Judy, I just fax in my request for all tests and all of the doctors reports and notes to my cancer center and I can get them that day even, if the results are in. Then, I go pick them up. I do get charged, but, only $5 for everything. I have always wanted to have everything related to my bc in writing for my own records. And, I always want to read the doctor's comments.

    Hoping
    There is no medicine like hope, no incentive so great, and no tonic so powerful as expectation of something better tomorrow. - Orison Marden

    Here's hoping everything goes well. I know that waiting is the WORST!!!

    Keep smiling, everybody will wonder what you're up to.
