The Fun Starts Again

Well I had my blood work and CT scan completed.  I got notification that my urine sample was routine (meaning normal- no blood).  I heard nothing about the CT Scan nor my blood test, so I'm hoping that is a good sign.

Today was extremely warm for November.  Traffic was bordering on horrific.  My appointment was 8:20, so I'm assuming it was regular commuting traffic.  However, there was some construction going on at my exit.  Of course getting off the highway at the exit I was greeted with signs that said the exit was closed.  Would have like to have know this prior to my taking the exit.  I meandered through and took some back roads and got back on track.  I made it there with one minute to spare.  I lucked out and got a parking spot near the entrance.

Upon entering the medical office, it was like a ghost town.  So it was a quick check in.  The ride was stressful thus I had a good supply for the urine sample.  I returned to the waiting room and was quickly called.

After answering my personal information questions, I was brought to a familiar examination room.  The medical professional took some vitals and asked me to prepare for the BCG instillation.  I dropped trow and covered with their extra large napkin.  Not long after, Morgan arrived and reviewed a few things.  She had me sign a document indicating what I was getting and the risks involved.  (Every new round requires this).

Morgan is a pro.  She made short work of the procedure with very little discomfort.  After completing, she said, "See you next week."

I got home and did my marination and was only 5 minutes shy of the two hours.

Today was a do nothing day.  Given current events, I listened to classical music and watched some you tube videos I subscribe to.  I had a pretty typical reaction to the BCG.  I had some Azo to help with the burning, discomfort and frequency. When I checked the mail today, my supply of Azo arrived from my eBay purchase.  Good timing.

More to come!
