Ten needle sticks in the neck later and I'm done with that! I keep thinking that with all my medical adventures I'll start becoming sturdier. You know -- craniotomy, staples in the head, lumbar puncture, nerve conduction studies/EMGs, previous needle biopsy in the neck. But sadly the opposite appears to be happening. I'm usually reduced to a wimpy overtly anxious patient these days for procedures. Everyone involved today was super and no one told me to buck up although they likely thought it.
The Radiologist was late. The guy in charge of the lab samples said to the ultrasound tech, "So where is the Pathologist?" She quickly corrected him, "You mean the Radiologist?" He smiled looking at me and said, "Oh yeah, you're not dead yet. Sorry, I'm used to dealing with Pathologists!"
Yep, still among the living and glad to be!
