Post-PET

My view from the small quiet room I sat in while waiting for the radioactive glucose do its thang.

Made it through the big scan. Minor port issues aside (can't people just get the needle in there on the first try?), everything went smoothly.  We celebrated with good green smoothies from chapterhouse since none of the froyo places were open at 11 am. Forgive me, but is it so wrong to eat yogurt before lunchtime? Well then, I don't wanna be right.

Is this all for real? Note the IV sticking out of my port.

Now, we are picking up some hamantaschen filling (cherry) for a week of baking for Purim. I am relieved to have actually had the scan done. We dropped off the disk at Dr. H's office, hoping to hear his take on the bulky blob soon since he is the King of Returning Phone Calls. To help take the edge off of the waiting, I have an MLD (manual lymph drainage) massage scheduled for tomorrow.

Very happy to have scan completed. Love my good green smoothie.

Thanks so much to all of my faithful friends and family who sent texts and emails to remind me of their support. It does make a difference.

This afternoon's plan: bake banana bread (with a secret ingredient - can you guess what the unlikely addition is?), make twice baked potatoes (also containing the same secret ingredient), Judah's favorite chicken sausage and roasted broccoli for din din. Must. Keep. Busy.

xxoo


UPDATE:  THE SECRET INGREDIENT IS PUREED CAULIFLOWER.  THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR GUESSES.  PLEASE TUNE IN AGAIN SOON FOR OUR NEXT BONUS QUIZ. :)
