Friday, I get to test my mask and also a CT simulation (calibration?) with contrast.
When I walk in it occurred to me that the mask was a clear plastic thing. Unlike the fishnet. With holes for my eyes nostril and mouth. Must be costly => staff, time and materials.
It did felt better though. Fits like a glove, actually a mask.
Then the CT scan...with contrast. I just offered the right hand. It was clear but the doc said yeah it does look easy but there is an artery under that. Hmm didn't know that so he went for another spot. No matter, I'm not going to look. It hurts less and it did.
The scan was as usual but I notice that here the contrast is electronically controlled ie the syringe was hooked to another machine and injected via remote (machine) control. Didn't matter, still felt the same, the hot flush feeling.
After it was finished I had a briefing about the radio therapy, where it was, side effects, schedule, etc.
Then the canulla was removed and out I go till Dec 7.
