bag o urine...

ok, it's been a while so let me catch up. tuesday i was on liquids until i realized i had to fast that night for my lab appt on wednesday. so i ate something solid. wednesday rolls around and i drive all the way to the "high-5" area for my appointment at 7:45am. i get there at 8 then have to wait until 8:45 to see an admin person to have me fill out a bunch of forms. then i'm waiting 30 more mins when she takes me to the back to another lady that hands me a cup and points at the restroom "one third please". sure, so i muster up some urine (made it a half to be sure) then put it in the specimen bag. and there i sit another 20 mins with my bag o urine until someone else takes me to get my blood drawn. now they take me to get an xray and you guessed it MORE WAITING. after another 15 mins of waiting i get my chest irradiated and get to go home. i had put in for a half day off so i had to be at work at 2pm. that said, eff the liquid diet that day cuz i had to fast again the next day.

thursday
my dad shows up at 6:45am to be at another appointment. this time they are knocking me out to shove a camera down my throat. an EGD is what they call it short for "esophagogastroduodenoscopy" yeah egd LOL... i'll share more about this and finish catching up tomorrow. right now i'm a little sleepy (have been all day) and i don't want to leave out some important bits.

till 'morrow
