I have to vent here because I don’t want the kids or Joe to see it.
They don’t – as far as I’m aware – visit this blog unless I link to a specific post on FB.
But SHIT. I had a liver ultrasound today and good fucking grief it FUCKING HURT. No, it’s not supposed to hurt. Even if you have tenderness associated with a particular complaint it’s really not supposed to “hurt”. Uncomfortable? Sure. A bit sore afterwards? Entirely possible.
Actually bring tears to your eyes though? Not so much.
The other fucked up part of this is that I know how to read an ultrasound. I can read measurements. I can differentiate between a mass and a gas bubble or empty space. I can tell what is artifact and what is not.
THAT sucks. I guess now I just wait.
