Catch-Up Time: July Scan

July marked six months since my last CT scan and oncology visit, so it was time to make the rounds again.


Boy, she looks tired!  Early morning CT scans
are just, well, too early!


Into the donut hole she goes.

Scans are probably the easiest part of this whole cancer thing; even the IV for the contrast dye isn't bad at all. 

The worst part, however, is the "scanxiety" that rears its ugly head in the days prior to the actual scan, and then the wait time between the scan and the oncology appointment.  It's illogical and a waste of brain power, but is very real:  you can't help but worry about what the scan will reveal.
