Nervous as ... well nervous CT Brain Scan


To say that the both of us are not on edge with waiting for the Brain CT Scan/with contrast is a misnomer.
Both of us are anxious.

Rich and I are both a bit short tempered and on edge. Both of us are tired and feel as though we are being dragged along again with something horrid hanging over our heads.

Of course he says he isn't.  But I know better.

Yesterday we went fishing for a little while.  While Rich fished, I walked around taking some photographs and then sat down on the steep bank, content just to watch Rich and talk with him.


The conversation was about anything and everything except the upcoming scan.

Yesterday I finally got all the 'ducks in a row' I think for the scan itself.
Get the required blood test at the VA, visit our VA appointment, then pick up the results to hand carry to the UW for the lab tech that is doing the CT.

Since the CT is being done so late in the day, apparently they will call with the results?

I don't know.  I would like the chance to look the doctor in the eyes while he discusses the scan results.

So another day of unknown will occur today.  

Hurry up and get 'tested'!!! Oh wait.  We'll get you the results...soon.

But I have to think positive as the scan results for throat cancer was clear.

Oh and the fish were not biting.  But I guess fishing is good even when the fish are not co-operative.  It gets you out into the fresh air and your mind is on something else.
