The Human Body (even mine) Is Amazing

One part of yesterday's CAT scan involved the injection of a dye that would give me a warming sensation throughout my body. In less than 2-3 seconds after it was injected, I could feel it in my mouth area and then a few seconds after that, I could feel it in my lower extremities. I said to the technician how quickly I felt it and he replied, "That shows you how quickly your blood travels through your system." I was amazed.

The scan was fine. I was only there an hour from the time I checked in until I was done. Pretty cool. Look for the details of the scan on Thursday evening after I am finished with chemo.
