My mom has some kind of acid reflux issue. To diagnose, they had her swallow some radioactive thing and x-rayed her. It was so bad the doctor called in a whole flock of med students to watch the radioactive tracer yo-yo in her esophagus.
I had a doctor call in students to look at a huge ball on my neck while I was waiting in the ER for my diagnosis. They shoveled my into different devices 3 times, at one point I saw 7 people crammed into the CT diagnostic room which was obviously made for not more than 3. Turned out I was an excellent example for a (at that point merely assumed) Stage 1 Lymphoma.
Happened about 8 years ago, am healthy now (thank you fellow german taxpayers ๐). Btw, don't hesitate to ask for THC in the hospital if you suffer brutal Nausea & Emesis during chemo, it really helped me.
Glad to help! And if I ever need it, I know I can count on you too.
I have a feeling I'm going to be getting a lot of use out of this one soon
