Something showed up on my chest X-ray today

I went to the hospital today to do pre-op testing for my GB removal surgery next week. 

Everything went perfectly fine until my last stop of the day which was for the chest X-ray.  There was a student X-ray tech there with a regular staff person.

The student tech worked with me and the senior tech worked the back room.

While they were developing the set of films they just took, the student tech went through his little set of health questions with me.  About the same time that he'd gone through his whole list of questions the senior tech called up and said he needed to do another film of the back view.  So we do this and I sit down to wait again.  The senior dude in the back doing the actual developing calls up and say...."she can go now."  I thank them and start heading back down the hall to the dressing room when all of a sudden they call me back again saying that something keeps showing up and they needed to do it again.....then the senior dude in the back says...."wait, do you have a gastric band?" 

LOL, it turns out that Beavis and Butthead kept wanting to take films because they were seeing my band!!!  It's even more funny because I told student dude when we went through the questionaire!!!

I didn't have time to get nervous because it was too comical!


                                            

YOU HAD ME NERVOUS THERE for a minute or two....way too funny...what a bunch of screw balls (and these people should be trusted with your health?)

lol, I needed a good laugh!!! and that helped!!!

OMG! I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall and hear what they were saying...that is too much!

LOL, you had me nervous too!! Thank goodness is was JUST YOUR BAND~!

Thirty lashes with a wet noodle for scaring the crap out of all of us!

You got me good.  I was thinking of all the things it could have been while reading this and never once did I think of the lapband.
