Day Eleven
Had my bone scan today - nowhere near as scary as I thought it was going to be. Had 0.5ml of a radioactive injection at 11am which has no side effects other than I cannot be around small children as I am emitting gamma rays! Feel like the human torch in 'Heroes'! Went back at 1pm for the scan. I had to lie down very still whilst one machine went over me - it comes very close to your face but not so that you feel trapped. Another one moves underneath you. I figured out that it was moving when I breathed so I lay there holding my breath and then breathing very quickly! It goes up and down in time with your chest - very clever. The nurse who did my scan was very reassuring and I feel very positive. Apparently, I fall into the 'Been there, done that, got the T-shirt' type of person due to my attitude at the moment. Keep it up!
