the mammo

The weather here is still glorious, low 70s with a calm wind. I walked 4.08 miles this morning on the Greenway Trail. I could have walked all morning in this delightful weather but I had to get home, shower and hightail it to my appointment. I was going to wear a new dress from Title Nine but then realized that two pieces would be more appropriate since I would have to strip off my top. I wore my white NYDJ Capri pants from last summer and a short denim top from Lands End Canvas. I cheated and used dry shampoo on my hair and just pulled it into a messy pony. The procedure was uncomfortable but it's over for another year and that's a good thing. Later I purchased a new insulated water bottle for my bike at Target. Little things like that make my day!!

the gamma cam

I was under the Gamma Cam today and although painless except for the injection it was not an experience that I want to have again anytime soon. I am slightly claustrophobic and I had to lay straight as a pin with a huge thing that covered my upper body, like an MRI machine. The Gamma Cam took pictures of my parathyroid which I didn't even know I had until two weeks ago. The nurse should call me with the results tomorrow. For the tests today, I wore my new pair of NYDJ capri pants. I love this brand and from now on its the only kind of jeans I will buy! I also wore a new tee that I picked up from Target. I did not have to change into a gown for this test. I decided to go without jewelry because I'm sure they would made me take it off. It's just something that I've learned from past experience.
