CT scan day

 Tuesday April 21st was CT scan day. I had to be at the hospital at 7:00 and my appointment was at 8:00. Surprisingly I got in and out pretty quick. I wanted to take pictures while I was in the hospital but never got around to it. The best I could do was snapping a couple in the parking garage before I left.

I wasn't supposed to eat before I went so I was hungry and stopped at McDonalds for breakfast.

After that I just wanted to go home. I ended up spending the rest of the day sleeping off an on until it was time to go to bed.

A few days later I got an email that the results were in my patient portal. I read the whole thing but didn't understand most of it. I got the fact that they detected a blockage and recommended an angiogram. 

Saturday 4/25 around 8:00 pm the cardiologist himself gave me a call. He explained the results, said they found a blockage and the next step would be a cathetarization. I agreed to go ahead and he told me he needed me to do a few things first to satisfy the insurance and that the hospital would be calling to set things up for me.

I quickly jotted down (and quite messily I might add) the medications he wanted me to take. He's supposed to be calling in the prescription ones for me.

So now on to the next step. Hopefully by the time this publishes I'll have an appointment time set up. Now to figure out how I'll get there since I can't drive myself and what to do with Gibbs if I have to stay overnight.
