Finally got that ZIO patch removed

[Siwsan]

It really was two weeks of annoyance. The tech was surprised at how good my skin looks. She said lots of people form rashes. It did itch a lot. The kid cats also caught sight of it so I had to be on guard to protect it against them launching an attack. The reading should be back in two weeks.

I know my NP is just trying to rule out anything other than my Tasmanian Devil level of anxiety that hits ANY time I'm at a medical appointment. I actually kept track, this morning, and my heart rate skyrocketed after I arrived at Oak Street.

I'm convinced I need to take an elephant tranquilizer before appointments. MAYBE it would help.

1. I just got mine put on yesterday. . .

and it's already itching a lot.

I'm glad to hear you got through it. I hope it doesn't make it too hard to sleep with it on. From what I remember the last time I had it on is that the last few days are the hardest because of the itching.

Hope you will get good results--I think it takes a few days to hear back.

2. The itching was the worst part of it

And I did kind of worry I'd knock it akimbo while sleeping. Apparently it was taped VERY securely.

They gave me a little note book to indicate if I experienced any pain. I took made no notations.

3. Having to go back in two weeks for the ultrasound

To try to rule out anything dire about the funny bump on my scalp.

May we all have good outcomes.
