Re: Dr. wants an ultrasound (liver/gallbladder) SCARED
Well done homie !!! congrats
I managed to coax some "presults" from the echo tech
she said I had a very photogenic heart
and that she got great pictures of everything they needed to see
AND they were also GOOD pictures
My cardio honcho is head of Cardiac Medicine at the Hosp so I expect
an official report in a couple of days
So far ... so GOOD !!
Cheers
