Get an Uber your worth it...

I live in the exoburb going to a suburban hospital about 17 miles away and Uber is no where near as good here as it is in more heavily populated areas so I don't want to go through the hassle.
Besides, they're just drilling a little core sample out of my hip. How hard could it be?
Currently waiting for my wife to come back from heart stress testing and worrying about a thing I need to get done tomorrow isn't high on my priority list. Going to wait to see how she's doing and if she can come home today before I think anymore about tomorrow.
All I know for sure about tomorrow is that I'm getting it done. It's the only way I can get the results back and find them out by Friday so one way or another I'll get it done.
Good news! My wife's heart is fine and healthy and I just brought her home. 
The good news keeps rolling in! My wife took me to the hospital, I get anesthesia!
In a gown hooked up in a hospital bed now and looking forward to getting this done.

It all went well, very little pain and we're already stopped for lunch on the way home.
Easy peasy lemon squeezy.

Core samples (lol) are something you feel the next day, and multiple subsequent days thereafter hehe.
Glad you're out and good, and also glad Mrs Wanderer received her clean bill of health too!

Almost, they know what's wrong now. It has a really long and complex name I forget but there's basically a tiny flap in her esophagus that shouldn't be there and if food gets in it her system reacts with the violently being sick thing. Good news is she got it fixed last year with a botox injection to the flap but it has to be repeated every year and she's overdue. She has an appt next week to get it done and it's an easy in and out procedure.
You ain't kidding about the core sample! I just woke up from passing out after getting home and my left hip is sore! Not nasty painful but definitely unpleasant, worth it though.
Bill being the operative word....
We maxed out our deductible back in August and our insurance doesn't roll over til June, no bills from this.
Slightly less pleasant is they found some things in my sample, "Abnormal immunological finding and serum, evaluate for MM,amyloidosis.". When I googled it I found I have between 9 months and 10 years left to live, I think I'll wait until I talk to the doc on Friday. This is why I don't google medical stuff.
Saw the doctor, cancer free and they didn't find anything else scary.
HAPPY FRIDAY!
HAPPY FRIDAY!
Glad the bill of health is back to all green! We love having you here, and hope you continue to post with us for many more decades
Fabulous, and why no-one should ever Google health conditions (unless you've got a strong constitution)!
