Radiation!

Went to Dr. Shide yesterday and got scan and tattoo for radiation. They put these wires on me and then scan my chest. After scanning they took pictures of my chest. I thought when they told me they were going to take pictures I thought they were talking about the scan. But no they took a 35 mm camera and took pictures of my right side and the top of my chest and left side. After that he tattoo once on my right side and then tattoo me on the center of my chest and then once on the left side. After that he took a permanent marker and put a big X on each tattoo then put a clear tape on them. The tape stays on and the tattoos they are not to be scrub off. They said they stay on pretty good. I go back next Tuesday for a trial run and they told me not to wear a good shirt cause they were going to mark my chest up pretty good. Not sure the reason for that but it is a one time thing. Then on Wednesday I go for my first radiation treatment and then every day Monday thru Friday. A six week long 33 treatments. And the cream is a prescription it is about 100.00 a tube. I am glad to finally get this going and get it over with.

As far as my appointment with Dr. Chow it was suppose to be today. But since Ft. Worth ISD was close so was her office. So I still have not been release to go back to work or drive. But I am already driving sometimes we have to do what we are not suppose to. I will have to reschedule tomorrow to see when I can get in to see her.
