Bone Scan - Jan. 18, 2011

Next up for fun appointments was the bone scan. It wasn't bad, it was just long.

My fiance drank a liquid then had to wait for 3 hours while it moved around his entire body. Then the bone scan happened and I can't really recall what that entailed.

I'm just going to add a link that hopefully explains it:

The purpose of the scan was to see if the cancer spread anywhere else in his body to his bones. A CT scan of his upper body already showed that the cancer hadn't spread to any tissue.
