Chapter 5: A medical checkup. (2/2)
"Now, this is going to be scary, but you have to remain calm and stay as still as possible It will be really loud, but it'll be over with before you know it, I pro the usual doctor practice of consoling younger patients when they had to be treated with large machinery He then directed Arthur to sit on the patient table while a nurse walked in carrying a needle
Arthur did as he was told, sitting up on the table, but then he remembered the worst part of this procedure as he saw the nurse Arthur's heart felt like it had tightened, and his hands began sweating, he couldn't help but get nervous, even after living well past adulthood, he still couldn't overcome his fear of needles "Ah, the contrast injection I alot"
Eventually the contrast h Arthur's veins, and he was ready to be put through the MRI He laid down on the table, and as pro Arthur wanted was another injection due to a failed scan
The roo of the net within the MRI machine served as some form of entertainusting adolinium contrast injection
After thirty minutes had past, the machine stopped, and the patient table slid out fro Arthur As he went to sit up, a wave of nausea washed over hi Arthur to almost tumble as he hopped off the table
"Oh ly praised Arthur, "I knonan MRI"
"Well, It wasn't pleasant" Arthur sheepishly responded, slowly following Doctor Hudson out of the MRI rooht Well that'd be the contrast I'll go find you a wheelchair Sit tight" Hudson ran off down a hallway after giving the order to stay put, he ca around a wheelchair "Alright hop on"
Arthur hopped on the wheelchair, and Doctor Hudson began pushi+ng him down a couple sets of hallways, past several patient rooms, until they finally reached what seemed to be an area full of et you in bed and hooked up to an EEG, and then you're done with your tests Sounds good?"
"Alright, that works" Arthur replied as he was pushed into a patient rooht, I need you to lie down and get co to come in and stick these s to oes on inside your brain, so we can ive an explanation without including any technical or ht if I just sleep, right?" Arthur had a headache and was hoping to get rid of it through rest A couple nurses walked in with equip electrodes around on his scalp, then wiring the as you don't knock the electrodes off, you can do whatever you like, You can always contact a nurse if you need help or want a book, ga ready to leave, "I need to go finish working on your test results, and inform your father about your condition so he calms down"
Doctor Hudson briefly showed Arthur his phone lock screen, there were at least twelve notifications, all of which were his father Arthur couldn't help but sigh, "I guess he really does obsess over me"
Over the course of that day, Arthur had et soar had alsoArthur a jelly cup that he took from the hospital kitchen
Later that day, Arthur's results had come in, and his father made sure to be present when they were read out
"From e can see, Arthur is perfectly healthy, his blood as excellent, and besides a few bruises and scrapes he's perfectly fine physically too There was barely even a speck on his MRI scan" Doctor Hudson was reading his results, al surprised at how healthy Arthur was, "There is however one thing that is unusual"
"Unusual What do you mean?" Arthur's dad instantly spoke up, Arthur himself also paid close attention as this didn't happen last time
"Arthur's brain activity, as recorded by the EEG, is showing extreure out why" Doctor Hudson turned to Arthur, his face showed more confusion than worry
