Heard that twice Monday at the CT scan. Apparently my zipper was interfering with the scan, so they had to stop it twice. oops. :P
I went in, got my IV started and waited. In a hospital gown in a tiny room. Turns out, they had an emergency that bumped me for a few minutes. I swear this guy was Joe, Teresa's husband from Real Housewives of New Jersey. I was convinced it was him, but then they said his name was Jerry. Let down! Hope Jerry's OK!
then I went in, they shot the dye in me, and I was scanned. Now I wait for the results. Hopefully get good news Thursday at chemo.
One question though: why must hospitals be so cold? I'd rather be cold than hot, but I hypothosized while waiting for Joe/Jerry to get his scan that the cold must help stop the spread of germs.
Tip for the future- I've had so many MRIs and CT scans that I've learned to wear a sports bra with no metal, yoga pants, flip flops, and a t-shirt (or sweatshirt if you're cold)- then they don't make you take your pants down or even worse, change into the hospital gowns. :)
ReplyDeleteGood suggestions! i decided while there that I would wear a sports bra next time! Yoga pants are a good idea too!
