When I checked into Bayside Imaging Monday on Facebook saying, “My first CT scan. Hopefully find out what is going on inside me.” I was fully expecting to share that I had kidney stones. On Sunday, I had gone to urgent care after after a pain in my side got progressively worse over the last few days. Their best guess was kidney stones, but ordered a CT scan to be sure and I scheduled my appointment on Monday.
