Journal Entry for March 17, 2009 Mood
Tuesday, March 17, 2009 | A Painful story
3/16/09-Went for my second CT today . This one was different than the one Dec 16th of last year. After all, when they gave me that one the E.R. r3 was trying to figure out where all the abdo and back pain was coming from...now we know.RCC. This one today was CT abdomen/ pelvic with I.V. PO contrast. I've not ever had so much discomfort after a CT but i guess with the hernia ( which I'll have surgery on June) and the back pain from I guess the RCC and other minor injury I shouldn't be surprised at my owwies tonight. Warmed up a bean bag in the microwave, and used it alternately on my tummy, then my back. I took 1/2 of a hydrocordone(hate meds). My 'script is for 500mg but 250 did the trick. I've only taken 2 since I got the RX in Dec. Since it is 'as needed' I would rather toughen up a little before surgeries, but I realize I don't have to be uncomfortable for no good reason. I'm writing this laying down
as it's not a treat sitting up for too long... The "L" position I call it. T.G.F.PDA's!
Nite nite.
