HIDA Scan went well!

Hey there everyone, just wanted to get a quick update out. The HIDA scan went pretty well; I hardly felt queasy/nauseated at all like I worried I might during the scan. I have not heard the results yet, though hopefully I'll be able to talk it over with the gastroentenerologist (stomach specialist) soon! Running's been all right; I went running for probably a little over 5.5 miles yesterday for my "long run" that took about 40 minutes and 2 seconds to do. Yesterday, I ran a bit of a harder work out where I ran three sets of 4 minutes hard in a moderately hilly are of Columbia (Howard County), MD.
I'm hopin' to go up to Pennsylvania tomorrow to the Centralia (Columbia County) area; an almost abandoned town. Horrible coal fires accidentally started there a little over forty years ago and it is still occurring underground. As a result a lot of the town was destroyed and most of the residents relocated (though I hear a small handful still remain). I'm hopin' to check it out since I'll be somewhat close by there tomorrow, and God-willing I can be safe and go for a run around there. The horror movie "Silent Hill" was inspired by this town (in that the fictitious town of Silent Hill, West Virginia was inspired by Centralia, Pennsylvania). Afterwards, I'm hoping to go to my friend's St. Patrick's Day party tomorrow evening, and hopefully I can make that 'cause I have not seen him in a while.

Thanks for stopping by, and for praying for my recent HIDA scan as well as health. I hope that you all have a nice weekend :)
