Guest guest Posted March 10, 2004 Report Share Posted March 10, 2004 Hi , That is very short notice, and I hope you advised your Drs. office that you were not happy about it. Good luck with the scan.... Hugs, Jo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 11, 2004 Report Share Posted March 11, 2004 You know, you just got to love how Doctor offices just automatically think that we have nothing else to do but drop everything and go to have tests done. NOT! Good luck with the scan.....and, maybe you'll get lucky and not have to have the dye injected to where you have to wait around? Tonia -------Original Message------- I got a phone call at 3:00 my time from my doctors office saying that they have an appointment for me tomorrow morning at 8am in Portland for a bone scan, talk about short notice. I scrambled around but found a ride. What is so irritating is that the fact that you go in for the injection then have to wait a couple of hours for them to actually do the bone scan. My husband's aunt was coming by at noon to visit and bring me lunch, drats guess we'll just have to do it another day, hope everyone has a good evening, S. ____________________________________________________ IncrediMail - Email has finally evolved - Click Here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 Radiologists don't jump to conclusions. A metal button is too well defined to fool anyone. However an old injury such as a broken rib or bruised bone could have recent increased bone turnover and that just might lead to a false assessment. Sam Has anyone ever had a false positive on a bone scan because of a metal button on their jeans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
