UPDATE TO: CT SCANS - DRINKING LIQUID OR INFUSION BY CANULA

An update to the above topic. So I went along to the X Ray department and guess what, the first person I saw was the nurse I have previously referred to as 'the cannula whisperer'. So I asked his advice. Apparently infusion by cannula (in his view) gives superior results because you get better imaging of the veins. Because I had a lot of confidence in his ability to cannulate me successfully I said go ahead, which he did. Just like that (been watching Tommy Cooper!). I have to say he is not subtle how he does it and it did hurt a bit but he was straight in no problem. Other people I have talked to have suggested a lot of it is about confidence, and experience on the part of the medical professional. Anyway I just thought I would share my (positive) experience. Now I am just nervously waiting to find out the outcome of the CT scan, to see if 6 months of Trabectadin treatment has actually made any impact on the 'incurable and inoperable' metastatic myxoid sarcoma tumours in my groin and pelvis. Let's hope so because it is the last drug on the list more or less.
