Cat. scan

Today I had to return to the Lister Hospital for another CT scan. I went into work then Tommy picked me up to take me. Because I have had lymph nodes removed from my right side, I am now, never allowed to take blood, cut or injure that arm as it may not cure itself. So they tried to find a vein in my left arm to insert the canular... But my veins are so hardened on the left arm from all the chemotherapy that it took one nurse, a doctor a lot of blood and pain and five attempts to get the tiny needle into a vein. The scan was a big whizzy donut thing, with some dye pumped through me. Tommy dropped me back off at work. Katz popped round straight after work, then I slept for hours.
