Almost here .....

As the time draws closer I find myself getting nervous. I am not sure what to expect. I have already had my quick panic attack yesterday but was called by our insurance case manager and then the health care nurse and then finally the Nurse Supervisor. I felt very loved and well taken care of at that point. I only panicked a bit when the supervisor said your radiation is when ? and did they request authorization for this procedure? Yikes! And they are on East Coast time so yes at 4:30 Pacific time I panicked. But Jane the supervisor nurse gave me her cell number and told me she would get it approved and not to worry. She even sent me a text later and said it was in the works.

I also got a hold of the other Endrochronoligt's office only to find out everyone is bailing from Dr Fink and there is now a 2 month waiting period for new patients. The nurse was very open and frank, and told me that he is a very good Dr but his staff lack follow through. She said just call and make appts with the Dr and speak to him directly. That was good advise. She was impressed at how fast everything had moved along for me so I guess I am in good hands.

 Now sure how it will go since Josh is now sick. We bought a new thermometer but I don't trust it 100 %. It always says I at like 96 even when I feel hot. Anyway it said Josh was 98 so we were thinking if it were off 2 degrees we believe it. That would mean Josh has a low grade fever. NO church for him tomorrow and I personally do not want to stay home with him and chance getting it. I just have to last a few more days.

So the deal is proceedure at 11 am - no eating 2 hours before and after. We may have to take 2 cars so Josh can stay out with Dad until I am settled into the room and door is locked. I think I have to hang out a little bit just to make usre it doen't come back up (please pray) and then I am sent home to drink fluids! Then it is 5 days and counting. The follow up will be in 2 weeks and will be some type of scan - I will need prayer to not panick - I have never had to lay in a machine but I have anxiety sometimes and a little of clostropobia which I hope will go away once I have synthroid. :-)

But first things first. Please pray I tolerate the pill easily and do not have too much pain in thyroid area, ears or saliva glands. I didn't have pain the first time but you never know. Each thing is different. I also pray this will work and do what it needs to do. They say I may gain weight once on the synthroid which I don't want to happen, but Mountain bike here I come! :) I love my bike!

I went out and weeded with Brianna B. all afternoon and it felt so good to sit in tehbackyard and to do something and accomplish something! Thank you so much Brianna! :-) What great company too!
