so, the mammogram and subsequent ultrasound went well. i'm back to being a boring patient. YAY BORING. i do so hate being of interest to the medical community. the mammogram is an x-ray. the ultrasound is apparently to check whether items of interest are either boring old fluid-filled cysts or more interesting and more solid unknown things that would need biopsying and all that brouhaha.

the folks were good and showed me what they were looking to get better pics of, and the ultrasound tech turned the screen so i could also see what was going on, and everyone answered my various questions well, and then the radiologist doctor guy check things out and gave me my results then, so i don't have to wait for either doctor's appoint next week. (it's a festival of medical stuff this week and next for me.)

ew. condolences. i'm glad that your ultrasound and mammogram were okay, though, and that the medical folks were good to you.

thanks. the rest of the festival is just regular check-ups and such.

Hey, did you have Jesus on the cross glaring down at you from the wall while you were tested?

no jesus. it's part of the WAR ON CHRISTMAS out here.

they did have a "cover your cough" pamphlet taped to the ceiling above the bed in the ultrasound room. i thought that was good placement.

See, this was the bonus of going to a Catholic hospital. They kept shouting "CHRISTMAS! CHRIIIIISSSTTTMMAAAAAAS! DO THEY HAVE CHRISTMAS IN FRANCE?" to everyone in the waiting room.

Wouldn't a Jesus on the cross be more of an Easter theme? You could have a baby Jesus in a manger looking on... might not have the same "glaring down at you" quality of course!

Yay and rock on for boring results!

BTW, when my dad was in the hospital with cancer, the hospital had Jesuses with their arms off the cross, which was very funny when I spent Superbowl Sunday with Dad and we watched the New England Patriots win their second superbowl. Adam Vinatieri puts it through the uprights, Dad looks at Jesus: "It's up..it's goooood!" Field goal Jesus.
