My first CT/scan FART
Well for the first time in my life, I was small enough to have a ct/scan done. Over the last 20 years or so anytime I have had a medical problem they never could do a ct scan because of my size, and never got a proper diagnosis. Well a few weeks ago I had some blood in my urine and some unusual pain in my pouch. The last month or so it seemed like I was able to eat a lot more than I had in the pass. Then last week it felt like my pouch did a 180 and just a bit or two of food would make me feel full and even kind of sick feeling. Then on Tuesday morning I woke up with the worst pain in the area of my pouch I have ever experienced, it hurt so bad even after managing to take some pain meds I couldn’t even move for about an half an hour. I called my WLS office and he sent me in for the ct scan. I fit in the ct machine with no problem. One thing that impressed me was that I had to drink some stuff before the test and I was thinking I hope the stuff doesn’t have sugar in it, when they brought it to me the nurse said since I had WLS they knew I couldn’t have the drink with sugar so I had my choice of crystal light to mix in with it, but it still tasted gross. Now I have wait to see what the results of the test find. One good thing out of all this, not being able to eat as much as I had been I dropped 15 pounds this week.
