More Tests Done

I had to do a bit of driving around today, two different hospitals in two different directions from my house, but I was able to get done: arterial blood gas; chest xray; abdominal ultrasound; and EKG. My wrist is still throbbing from the ABG, why does that hurt so much? I guess it didn't help that the respiratory therapist had to stick me a couple times and dig a bit the 2nd time to keep the vein from rolling around.

Labs done

Labwork done. I think I gave a pint of blood. I was able to call around to a different hospital and get an earlier appt for the abdominal u/s so I'll have that, the EKG and the chest x-ray done tomorrow.

Labs and Tests

I received my packet from Abington in the mail today with the lab slips for the testing I will need to have done before I meet with Dr. G.  Fasting bloodwork with about 21 different tests ordered: stool sample (ugh); chest x-ray; abdominal ultrasound; EKG; and arterial blood gas. The hospital can't get me in for the u/s until June 2nd, but they assured me the Dr would have the results by the time for my appt. I hope that's correct. I'll go get the bloodwork done tomorrow just to get that one over with.
