Fibroscan Tomorrow

Writer's picture: Susan PrydeSusan Pryde

Remember December when I had the liver scan to check my progress and healing? The one that came out so good that they wanted to so another one to be sure it is real? Well tomorrow is the day. I don’t know if I’ll have the results tomorrow but I’m sure gonna try to pry them off if the tech.

I am also going in for all of the blood draws to check liver functions as well as anything that may help shine light on my low BP issues lately such as meds that may be too strong for my small ass now.

I will admit to have been a little nervous and cranky today. I know I shouldn’t be. But I my memory still goes back to the beginning of this journey where every single test brought worse news than the last.

I will keeping my mind open. It’s going to be ok.

What is FibroScan?

FibroScan Testing is a recently FDA-approved non-invasive diagnostic device used to measure liver scarring or fibrosis caused by a number of liver diseases. Similar to undergoing a conventional liver ultrasound exam, outpatient FibroScan testing is quick, painless, easy, and provides a non-surgical alternative to the traditional liver biopsy to assess liver damage. Associates in Gastroenterology, PC is one of the first gastroenterology clinics in the Southern Colorado area to provide this innovative procedure.


Love, Sue
