Mayo Series: Going radioactive

Bone scan. Wednesday I see a pain specialist and discuss options. PT appt. too. I'm trying to believe this can be fixed. Can't know til I know. This medicine is radioactive (minimally) and has tracers that go in my bones so we can see if there are bone/joint issues. I take this in a vein and then wait three hours to do the scan.

I would be a bit nervous about this - but it might be essential for a diagnosis!

It really is amazing what they can do now - with such fantastic results. All a bit scary but worth it if they can give you some positive news!

Now that I see it's radioactive, wishing you the best!

Very high tech sounding. I do hope all this works out for you. Back pain is so debilitating.
