Second Checkup This Week

 

First, I went to the lab for a blood test and a urine test. After that, I had an appointment with a nurse at 9 AM. Since some of my medications were changed, they decided to do a kidney ultrasound for further evaluation. However, the ultrasound was scheduled for 1 PM, so even though my morning appointment ended at 10 AM, I spent the waiting time at the hospital cafeteria, having breakfast.

 

At 1 PM, I was called in for the ultrasound, which ended up taking a whole hour. I'm not sure if the technician was just slow or if it was supposed to take that long, but it felt like the same thing was being done over and over again. Just when I thought it was finally over, they asked me to go pee, and after that, they took another ultrasound of my bladder. By the time everything was finished, it was already 2:15 PM. It was a long session.
