I got my other drain removed today, yay! After that, I went to have a PET scan. I have never had one before. If you have ever had melanoma before, you have to tell them because they have to take deeper images. I also learned you should not hold an infant of toddler for about 20 minutes after your scan because the radiation from you could affect their tyroid. Never heard that before. Oh well, live and learn. I can see how people freak out getting PET scan's because you are sliding back and forth in a big tube, after they inject you with purple dye. In the situations, I just take little cat naps. That seems to work best for me. After I got home today, I got the worst headace. I wonder if it is from the dye. Surgery for my port is still scheduled for Tue. I tell ya breast cancer is a pain in the ***!! No doubt about it. Not only for me, but for Tony too!! I saw on tv today hot dog warnings and cancer. I have been told some of the top cancer causing foods are hot dogs, bacon, sausage, and french fries. There is so much to learn and I bet whoever is reading this learned something about PET scans today. I know I did. C-ya at the tables.
