Well I went in and had some blood taken  (Oh, can't find a Dracula smiley), then the ultrasound.

Wow! It was really fascinating. They gooped me from the top of my thigh right down to the ankle, and ran the Doppler down what I presume was main artery (or vain, what is the difference Jason?). Then at intervals they made me contract my stomach muscles, then release, and when I released you could hear my blood whooshing.

Wish they had let me see the screen     .

Of course they wouldn't say anything, but will send the results to the Doctor. I'm not too concerned, I still think it's just muscle pain.

(Hopefully that wasn't too much information  )

I had a Colonoscopy a year ago last April and it was FASCINATING watching my insides on the screen Smile

I had a lump removed from my stomach some years ago, and the doctor had to set up a tripod and a mirror because I kept on trying to see and squashing the scalpel. Smile
