Good Cat Scan

I had a Cat scan last week of my abdomen and pelvis

I was and still am having pain in my right side under my breast exactly where the gall bladder pain was.

Had my period and a stomach bug but the pain won’t go away

When to the doc at nyu who sent me for a cat scan

Usually stomach issues with the barium…possibly the worst in a few years had diarrhea for 3 days

The day before the scan I placed myself on liquids thinking less in less out but no apparently the liquids make things faster

The good news other than the very small hernia (that I have been aware of for a few years) every thing form the bottom of my lung to the top of my thigh is normal. They think the pain is a pulled muscle in my stomach from throwing up with the stomach bug I had a few weeks ago

Makes me feel real old to pull a muscle throwing up but as we all know getting older is not scary any more it’s very much welcomed and appreciated

Love that word normal

Hope the onc will accept this scan as my yearly check even though it was done without contrast

Didn’t have much scanxiety till I got to the little cold scan room then the fear came rushing back it’s colon, stomach ect cancer

Life is good
