MT PET Scan

Less than one minute read time.
Hi everyone, Well had my scan yesterday had to lay with glucose injection in me for an hour, then went in for the scan, luckily im not claustraphobic so was ok, half way through the scanner broke down, trust my luck i thought, anyway soon up and running again, never lied so still for so long, and i couldnt talk either 6 hours before scan and whilst having the injection, couldnt even read, apparently you have to be as relaxed as possible !!!! Thats a contradiction in terms but hey i coped! Came home but was just so tired and hungry, my appetite never fails even with a bad bout of tonsilitis, we had a takeaway then i went to bed! Another step nearer to finding out hopefully where the Primary site is!!!!! Another weeks wait for the results, i find this the worst bit but i realise im just one of many and i cannot fault the NHS up to now!!! Hope everyone s ok and remaining positive like me! Jill

    hi jill ,

    hope you are feeling a bit better today .

    its still early days hun ,you are entitled to have bad days aswell as good ,you wouldn't be human if you didn't slip from time to time .....cancer is no bloody walk in the park ,so being scared ,worried,angry is perfectly acceptable...

    ((..its saturday evening only 7:30 and i'm in bed feeling sorry for myself, all my friends are getting ready to go out partying but i'm still to sore from the op last week ....the clamps were taken out yesterday 3 days early as they were becoming infected ......i feel pretty fed up and depressed but know i'll get my second wind again soon as you will hun ,you'll be your positive ,upbeat self again in no time at all :O)  ))

    wishing you all the very best of luck for monday ,please do let me know how you get on

    big hugs trudy xxxxx
