The scans are now done. Tuesday was a long day with an injection in the am. It took 7 attempts to get a line in as Pat has narrow veins. They finally managed it with a Paediatric Butterfly, which has a fine needle. We then had to go away and come back four hours later. They then had a camera problem unfortunately and were running an hour late. By this time Pat, who has Parkinsons plus other things was getting exhausted, but he managed OK. Staff were very nice indeed. Day two was straightforward. We went back for 4.15 pm for second scan and were seen early and all went well.
Now we have next Monday and the Oncologist appointment. We already know part of the diagnosis, but I feel very apprehensive, as this scan is very detailed. It doesn't make sense, I know, but we are both nervous.
