They gave me two capsules with radioactive iodine this morning. Its to see if my thyroid is acting up. The radioactive iodine will congregate at my thyroid and then it can be scanned by an instrument. It just seems weird to be ingesting something that is nuclear in nature. Hope I don't get leukemia in 10 years...
I joked with the nurse about setting off a radiation detector, and she said that it was possible if I was checking in at the airport - with all the new terrorist screening and such. Gee, that made me feel real comfortable.
