I am going to have an ultrasound.

Its scary, I hope the doctor gives me good news.

i hope you get good news.. may you and your child be healthy. 😄

NO... I am not pregy 😂

Its actually an injury on my left leg due to repeated leg kicks and since its non fracture It has to be done in ultrasound instead of an Xray. Theres a bruit that can be palpated whenever I have a valsalva maneuver. My trainer told me not to fight/spar until I get my leg fixed.

It's an ultrasound...

srug

.... on a leg....

Scary....

ermm

maybe its a small floating piece of broken bone.. had one in my ankle it had broken off, it would click when i walk..i refused surgery b/c i didnt trust the military surgeons. it went away on its own body probably just pushed it out somewhere else.

I had an ultrasound to check to see if I have gall stones.

****ing hurt like a god damn shit ****er.

Had to bury it deep into my tissue to get a picture. With full force, the ultrasound **** dug further and further into me.

Hmm?

Reasons its scary

1) NO HEALTH INSURANCE (my work/health insurance has not kicked in yet) Meaning this will burn my savings/checking account

2) I cant do what I love. (MMA)

3) I cant lift weights/exercise (since the force of my body pushes blood outside of the vein or into interstitial space. (may cause DVT/Phlebitis and increase the chances of having heart attack/stroke if left untreated)

4. Herniated vein with sharp pain during standing/walking

SO YEA ITS FUKIN SCARY

Lesson learned: Stepping back to avoid leg kicks is much better than checking leg kicks.

That's gonna be a *****. Ultrasounds are like 4 grand a scan.

The equipment is ridiculously expensive, though. As is the training to properly read the results.

results are in.

Gonna be broke for these 2 weeks. (due to expensive kaiser permanente hospital services) 🙁

superficial hematoma. (no fighting/avoid being kicked on legs. i can do technical drills. if i have to fight, I MUST DO SOUTH PAW STANCE not orthodox) 🙁

lift few weights but limited not to have valsalva 🙁

ibuprofen bid + stocking compression + heating pad (MD orders)

What a relief! 😱

its not a hose. its a venous compression stockings to prevent blood pooling inside my leg. I will look like a cross dresser while wearing this and kicking butt in MMA 😆

And it's still expensive. And the scans are only quick if the person doing it knows what they're looking for and can quickly interpret what they're looking at.

My aunt's a radiologist. I know a teeny bit about this sort of thing.

Holy shit you pay 4000 USD for an ultrasound?

You guys definitely get bend over and taken to brown town...
