Day 24

Day 24

Crazy day!

Everyone said getting your port inserted into your chest was a breeze.

For me that was not the case.

Got there around 8:00 am.

Paperwork.....again.

Blood drawn....again.

Blood pressure...again...a strong 115 over 73!

See..I'm healthy! =)

Then I slip into my sexy robe and hot cap and sit and wait!

Anthony is holding my hand and trying to snuggle with me on the gurney!

I think he was just jealous I got to lay down! LOL!

He was a wee bit tired!

then an entourage of snazzy looking young male nurses came and swept me away!

"Bye honey! Looks like I will be in GREAT hands!" hehehe

Off to the room we go.

I made small talk then told them all about an email i had received from a friend. It was a picture of a woman wearing a plastic bra filled with margaritas charging men $10 a minute to take a swig from her nipples!

They laughed.

Then we chatted about Tosh 4.0 the TV show they they drugged me!

Out!

Wake up and well don't really remember much of that part of my day!

A wee bit fuzzy!

Just know I managed to get on the wheel chair and get rolled over to my MUGA scan in the nuclear radiology dept because the authorization finally came in for that test.

So needless to say I was a HOT MESS during this test!

Not quite with it!

They tried to poke my arm and draw blood 3 times.

Then they had to mix my blood with the radioactive garbage and put it back in my vein!

When the not so good at her job nurse tried to perform this task she missed the vein and it swelled up in my wrist and hurt like HELL!!!!!!!!

The Doc gave me a warm compress.

That did nothing!

Then a different nurse came and gave me more radioactive garbage the right way in my vein so it would circulate in my body and the test would work correctly!

An hour later I was done.

It was awful!

During my test Anthony had received a call saying that I needed to do an ultrasound since I was here in the hospital. The MRI I had just had a couple days prior showed two swollen lymph nodes and they needed a closer look.

After the ultrasound we left!

On the way home they called and told me that they are going to have to biopsy the lymph nodes to test for cancerous cells.

Soooo many tests.

I feel abused!

I feel sick!

Percocet makes me feel awful!

We got home around 6:30 and I was in bed at 7!
