PET SCAN

Hello everyone.  Today was the Pet Scan, wow it was not as long as I thought it would be and not that bad of a test.  I signed in, and got the little I.D. bracelet with bar code and then I had to go down the hall to another waiting room and get checked in there.  I had a quick questionnaire to fill out and after that it wasn't very long at, before I got called back.  A nurse (I guess), checked my sugar and then said it was good and that he would be back with the i.v. to set up the injection site (radiation).  My sister was there and asked him some questions and he was more than happy to answer them.  Sometimes, they don't like to share their knowledge with others.  She got to stay in there with me until he had to inject the stuff.  I was left alone for an hour (I fell asleep).  After the hour was up, the scan itself only took 10 minutes.  It wasn't too bad!  I'd rather have this test than the noisy MRI.  Hopefully they will have a better idea on what to diagnose me with if anything at all. Thanks for reading.  God Bless.
