" I'm off to see the Wizard!!"-- tomorrow

i went to the hospital today for my second injection of thyrogen. instead of Glinda, one of her"sisters" gave me the injection, if you know what i mean. i am not sure if she was from the east or west. she was nice enough, she did just not have the mad skills with a needle that Glinda had! i had to walk around for a while( i drove out to Michaels to look around) before i could sit for the hour ride back home. i have to drive myself tomorrow- to get my RAI. i just hope that i do not get sick, if i am going to, before i get home. i can just see me getting sick on the side of the road, and then haz-mat coming in for the clean up.

i have decided that the thyrogen did not make me feel so tired yesterday. i think it was the fact that i worked 6 out of the 7 days last week that did it. i have not had any problems with the thyrogen injection, well, except for a sore fanny. i am thankful i did not have to go off of my thyroid medication for six weeks before the treatment. this is definitely better. hopefully the scan will be detailed enough- that is the only drawback,besides the cost of course.

i am finishing the last minute things i need to do before my isolation. i am making a pound cake for my husband- he has hated my LID- me,too!! the cookbook has been great,though. i am even going to make the granola after i get off of  the diet. i have to get some more of my supplies ready- books, magazines,etc.. i have decided to use travel size containers( the 99 cent size) for my shampoo,conditioner,etc, and just throw what is left away. i hate to be wasteful, but i do not want to make anyone sick, either. i am glad that i found some disposable products that are "green". they are made of sugar cane and completely break down in three months.

i was concerned about my bloodwork that has to be done on friday. i will still be "hot" and i do not want to expose anyone. the folks in radiology told me to ask the med tech would would be drawing my blood if she was pregnant. now, won't that make a good first impression!?  they said for me to put " my good arm" out quickly, and don't linger. that should not be too hard (!!) i feel like wearing my husband's bee keepers suit into the hospital. i wonder if that would attract attention?

if you do not hear from me for a day or so, it means i am a little too nauseated to blog. but i am sure that i will be up and about soon. fingers crossed.
