It's soooooo boring! Nothing happening there. I've defaulted to Big Bang theory ;)

Whoa, that iv contrast dye is quite a hot flash! Now I wait for results. Everyone is ridiculously nice. That's a bonus.

Phew, appendix is fine, nothing in danger of exploding. There is a large begnign tumor on ma liver but apparently those are pretty common and not immediately worrisome. There will be more doctor visits come Monday. In the meantime, I shall enjoy ginger beer (booze free, in honor of my lovely and highly functional liver who apparently needs hairpats and praise) until the foul taste of aspartame-laden contrast drink is gone from my mouth.
eta: another point in favour of the amazingness of buffista-ma. Nothing splodey!

(the down side is that there's no reason for that tumor to be symptomatic. no reason for it to be causing visceral pain very very low on the right side...unless it's just smooshing things around. but i'll think about that more on Monday and just keep on keepin on through the weekend.)
The up side is that our semi-annual schedule shift is next week, so by a fluke I have Mon-Fri off with no vacation day usage (current schedule is Mon/Tues/Wed as days off, starting Thursday my days off will be Wed/Thurs/Fri so I win). A full 5 days to luxuriate in medical testing! And hope that my insurance company decides to cover tonight's CT scan...since the office was closed and unavailable for pre-authorization Ah, my credit card company shall be so happy.

erin, I guess that's prelim good news, but dang! I was hoping for a happy resolution for you.
Do you at least have good pain meds?

I have a pleothera of pain meds but none are especially good. Im giving the tylenol with codeine another try tonight, vicodin last night barely dulled the pain and oxy makes me itchy :( Dr actually offered morphine but the TENS unit works wonders during the day and honestly, ambian is working better at night than even super high doses of vicodin + muscle relaxers so i'll just stick with ambien at night and TENS during the day until it's somewhat resolved and keep my fingers crosses that it didn't fuck up my sleep rebounding too bad.
