I had my bone density scan scheduled for this morning.  When I showed up the technician came out and said that she hadn't used the scanner since that last time when it had broken down and when she showed up this morning there was a note on her desk saying that everything was working.  Well, she tried to turn the machine on and it wouldn't even turn on this morning.  So we had to reschedule again! And they gave me another $6 gift card to the eatery again.  Luckily this time I hadn't traveled very far to get there.  So I will cross my fingers that everything will work next week...

I also go my CA-125 test results back and it is at 10 again.

I just had my routine 4 week visit today.  Everything looks fine with my labs.  Since my kids are off-track from school, I dropped them off at my parents' house on my way into the clinic.

I did notice that my last CT scan was not paid for by the study like it was supposed to be.  I let the study coordinator know and she is looking into it.

I had an appointment for a bone density scan right before noon today.  I took MJ over to my parents' house and helped them pack up their kitchen for their cabinets to be redone and then I drove over for my appointment.  After sitting around for a little while I overheard someone talking to some ladies and it sounded like there was some machine broken and they were having to reschedule appointments.  I asked the technician about it and she said that it was the dexascan machine - which is what I was there for.  Apparently it quit working during someone's scan and after rebooting the machine it still wasn't working so they were having to reschedule all of the appointments for that day.  They usually only have appointments one day a week but the following week they were not going to be having any appointments.  I now have to wait until the day after my next doctor's appointment to get my bone density scan done.  They did give me a $6 gift card to use at one of their eateries though...  I think I will save it until I go downtown next time since it will be over lunch time.
