First Test of the Week

Today was Zachary's Nuclear Medicine Emptying Scan.

The test went well - the Dr can call today (according to the tech) for preliminary results. For sure we should have answers no later then Thursday. The test was relatively easy and painless. Zach had to drink his rice milk with some nuclear meds in it - that took longer then we thought and I was told if he didn't hurry up we would need to put an NG tube in his nose. I made a game out of it for him as we were walking the halls at our children's hospital (thank goodness for their decorations). Zach finished in the nick of time. He had to lay on the table, strapped down for 2 hours. Every minute a camera took a picture of his stomach. Zachary was fine - quiet the whole time until the end when he had enough.

When we were done, the tech opened the door - Zach ran full force out the door waving to the tech and saying "buh-bye" over and over very fast - he was stuck, it continued until we got into the parking garage and no one was around - one last time as I put him in the car - this time it was only five times really fast.

My little man survived today, now for preparing for tomorrow.....

"BUH-BYE"
