The scan itself was really no big deal - it was over in about 20 minutes. Heck, the paperwork took longer than that. I am having a very mild reaction to the iodine, though (they inject you with iodine about halfway through the procedure). At the time I felt the fairly common warming sensation, and a very bitter taste in the back of my mouth. Afterwards I’m feeling light-headed and somewhat nauseous. I checked the warning paperwork, and apparently if I vomit more than once I should call someone.

Lovely.

Still, no vomiting so far, so I guess I’m ahead of the curve, from a reaction standpoint. I don’t think I’ll be doing any driving any time soon though. My doctor will get the results in “a day or two,” which could mean tomorrow or Monday. I’m going back and forth between hoping they show something, and hoping that they don’t. I’m sure you can understand why.

My only complaint is that for $1,300 you’d think that they’d at least give you a souvenir t-shirt or something. Or a pen. Ah, well. I think I’m going to go lay down for a while now.
