I had my CT scan this morning. I drank the first "glass" of the nasty drink at 5:30 a.m. and was supposed to drink the second "glass" at 7:30 a.m. But, around 6:30 the first dose went straight through and kept going through until just before leaving the house for the test. I called the CT nurse and told her what was going on and that I didn't take the second dose and she said that was OK. They made me drink another dose while I was on the CT table...then they injected some other contrast stuff and I was done within a half hour. Went home and ate some breakfast and made sure it was going to "sit" with me before heading into work. The difficult thing is that I have a 20 minute comute to town. Luckily I didn't have any "accidents". All in all things went OK...now I'm just tired and trying to get things done here at work. Plus with on the internal commotion this morning, I'm now dealing with the "left over cramps", etc. I told the nurse what I was going through with the IBS-D and she said that she has just the opposite...has had since her first born child. Said it makes her back hurt. So we had a little something in common.

Thanks for all your support!!! I really appreciate it!
