Pet Scan

Matt had his Pet scan yesterday. It took two hours. The first hour they injected the dye into Matt. They wanted him to lay still for the dye to go through his body for a hour. They asked him if he wanted them to play music but he said "no" he would rather take a nap. After a hour they woke him up and moved him on to a table where the scanner machine was. The explained that the machine would take pictures of different areas. It stays in one spot for about 5 minutes and move on to the next area. They asked Matt again if he would like to listen to music and he said "no" he would finish his nap. They gave him warm blanket and he took another 45 minute nap.

They said the results would be in by later in the afternoon. They said Dr. Eastman can look on the computer and access the results right away Friday. I called Johnson Creek Clinic to have the results faxed to Dr. Sugarbaker so he can take a look at it and help direct us on what path we should be taking. We get together on Wednesday with the Doctor to make a plan.

I hope and prayer for directions that will best help Matt! Thank you for all your prayers!!!
