I'm sitting at my desk drinking my first bottle of banana flavored contrast.
DEEEELICIOUS.
I'll drink the other on the way to the SCAN.
I'm sure it will be fine. If not, we'll figure something out. I'm tired of thinking about it actually..LOL. Guess we've all been there and will come back to that PLACE periodically.
10 minutes ago I just got out of my primary care provider's office here on base (about 5 mins away) and they updated me to a non-deploying status. Guess that is a good and bad thing. I'd trade back the cancer though so I could deploy and really do my job as it is supposed to be done. Guess I'll be riding a desk during the surveillance period. What can I do?Comment

I often wonder if oncologists delight in scaring the crap out of people. About 10 minutes ago the phone wrang, and as soon as I saw it was my oncologist I started to FREAK OUT.....
It was his nurse calling to tell me my CT scans were ALL CLEAR. They've never called me that quickly. I only had the ct at 9am. So of course I thougt it was something serious.
Oh, well, there goes another year off my life.
But, it was nice to get the good news so fast. Now I can relax.Fish

CONGRATULATIONS on your good news!
What a great way to go into the holiday! It's so touching to see this thread with people wishing you well.
P.S. Andy's mentioned to me that the only way to "enjoy" the contrast is BERRY FLAVOR CHILLED (the nurses would let him take the contrast home the night before to refrigerate it!)Maria
