Ultrasound

Blake had his ultrasound this morning at 7:45! Geez, that is way to early for anything. I told him to call me afterwards in case they told him anything, but i didn't hear anything from him until after 10. I was in a meeting so i didn't get to talk to him until lunchtime.

He said the woman repeatedly held the wand over his stomach near his pancreas and kidneys. (he thinks he was in there for an hour.....or at least 45 minutes.) Usually, your in and out right? He asked her what she saw, and she wouldn't tell him anything (which is normal, i think?) but he definitely left worried.

He left there and had to give blood at the doc office. They put him on an IV and took like 8 viles of blood---Which kind of irks me. The nurses wanted someone to drive him home, but no one warned him of this beforehand. Luckily, he was okay to drive, but i wish I'd gone with him.

I've given him encouraging words, and i have to admit, it was hard to do because i am a bit worried myself. Hopefully, we'll get the results sooner than later. If you have any good thoughts, send them our way!

I hope everything is okay. I am thinking about him. I have my own ultrasound next week.
I know the worry. It is stressing me out!

Good vibes to you both! The US tech can't really say much either way without an MD in the room. Hang in there!
