Having just gone from the waiting side to the known side I can identify with the pain. The worry just zaps your energy like nothing I have ever experienced. I slept hours, read for hours I finally gave up and spent hours playing bedazzeled because if I was doing anything else the fear was all consuming. But what I haven't mentioned is that they did not premedicate me for one of the two PET Scans, I am allergic to IVP dye. How was I supposed to know that and I was not happy to be sent home Friday half finished. I was on the phone Monday AM and while I am ALWAYS pleasent the squeeking wheel gets the oil is absolutely true. I made 10 different calls to everyone I had a number for and some people got 3 calls before noon. I had that 2nd test yesterday at 8 AM and made sure the Doctor had the results for my 11:30 appt. There was no way their mistake was going to leave me waiting another hour.
