MRI
I had my MRI on Saturday. It went ok, I guess. Of course, they had a horrid time getting an IV started, but managed to get one in my left hand with an itty bitty needle. They did the first part of the MRI without contrast - no problems. When the contrast part started, I felt this big gush of liquid pouring down my hand. I pumped the little "emergency bulb" to tell them that my IV blew and the contrast was pouring all over my hand. Right when I did that was when they needed to get the images of the contrast first going in, but beause I was talking, those images didn't turn out well. The tech told me that everything else looked good, so hopefully I won't need to re-do that test AGAIN. Once the test was done, the tech came over to remove my IV and that's when I learned that they did get the contrast IN, but then my vein blew so all the fluid gushing down my hand was blood. Nice. I swear, I am not going to have any blood left!
