You shouldn't get all worked up about it right now.  The Doctors are just looking for what is causing your headaches. There is no guarantee you will be diagnosed with either.  There is a lot of minor things that can cause your symptoms too. So try to stay calm!! I know that is easy for me to say, but no matter what happens you can get through it.  Don't worry about the CT scan either.  I'm studying to be a Rad Tech and the scan is really simple.

Wow, that's creepy! :) My 2nd's at the same time tomorrow! Best of luck. <3\n\nIt probably sounds stupid, but I own this stuff called "Remedy Relief" , you spray it under your tongue and it magically calms you down... simple as that - I found it worked!\n\nAnyway, if you haven't got that or can't get it, just focus on breathing steadily. I liked talking to the examiner to take my mind off of things. \n\nDrink lots of water before you go - but not so much that you're going to need to go to the loo all through your test. ;) I mean enough that it should clear your mind, and keep you hydrated and that's the best for concentration.\n\nYou should only feel nervous and cloudy minded for a few minutes. The rest'll fly by!\n\nGood luck! :)\n\n(Do you know how much you're freaking me out right now? I have a blood test tomorrow aswell!)

Call your doctor ASAP. He/she should be aware of your temperature and the persistence of this pain. You need at the very least a complete work-up, including bloodwork and chest and maybe abdominal X-rays. Don't mess around It could be a million things, some minor or some very major.

Prepping for quadruple Bypass Surgery.\n\nBe glad you are just getting cleaned out.\n\nHow about having your chest ripped open and your legs cut open looking for good veins to use?  That sound like MORE fun?\n\nI do hope they don't find anything negative. I went through it and aside from lack of sleep the night before, and the obvious cramping from the Fleet, the procedure was no big deal.  In fact being tired made me more relaxed while the doctor rammed 5 ft. of "BLACK" hose up me.\n\nLOL, good luck!

Who said she needed a CT Scan? And what was the surgery for? There is not enough information in your details.  They are to vague. Going by what your saying she is IN the military so she should be part of TriWest Healthcare Alliance. If your having problems then it would be a good idea to get a consult from her Primary Care Dr to have a referral on the outside (civilian) and see a specialist and see if the specialist has the same diagnosis.  If she does not get a referral she can still see an outside Dr but will have to pay for it. If she goes through TriWest, they will pay for it. There is a TriWest representative in every Military hospital. Have her talk to them.  Good Luck. I have sent you their website.

It is an almost painless test, you will be given a sedative and a local, you will be conscience and aware of what is going ON. The test it self is only about 5 minutes 10 at the most, it the prepping that can be anxious because you have to be shaves on the right groin if you do not want the nurse to do it you shave yourself but do not nick or cut yourself as they not do the test. You will be able to se what the Dr. sees and he should give a step by step as he is doing it, ask questions then don't wait until after it is over. When the inject the dye you will a warm sensation especially in the groin area , in fact it will seem as if you wet yourself but you didn't it just feels that way. After the Dr. will most likely put a collagen plug in the artery but may use a sandbag you will have to stay in bed for about 6 hours and then you can go home. The next day just rest and relax and don't shower or bathe. The Dr. will advise on when you can resume normal activities.

Make sure you use the pressure garment. The last thing you need is a emobolism. (clot that will move through body and to heart or brain. Then you are "bye bye" forever.) The swelling will probably last a few weeks. As long as no drainage, pus, or red inflammation you should do well. Go to the docs on the scheduled follow up days and whatever you do....FOLLOW THEIR GUIDANCE. If they say, keep elevated...you do that. If they say do not walk onto flat of foot...you do that.  Trust me, listening to their expert advice will enable you to heal faster. Take care.

Don't worry about the colonoscopy procedure as you will not be that uncomfortable. You will be lightly sedated and won't remember anything about it. The good news is that if anything is found to be amiss, it can be taken care of before it becomes life threatening. Add a little  humor to the procedure. I put a temporary tattoo of a Tasmanian Devil on my buttock! The surgical staff thought it was hysterical.

Bad Idea!  Please call around and talk to your local er.  They will be able to tell you where you can go to get it taken care of correctly.

Relax.  You have nothing to worry about.  After two years of work, you know this stuff like the back of your hand.  This is the time to lean back and relax so you'll feel comfortable tomorrow.  I'd say, "Good luck," but you won't need it -- trust me!
