Ct Scan Posted: 10-13-06 21:19pm
Any one ever had a ct scan before? I had
to have one last week and the stuff that I
had to drink was absolutly nasty. Like
glue sugar and vanilla frosting yuk I
still cant stand the smell of vanilla.

I had a ct scan done to my abdomen when I
had appendicitis. But the stuff I drank
was horrrrrrrible it tasted like somebody
made orange juice carbonated. I think it
was barium.

I guess I got lucky! I had the iv
contrast just this past monday, didn't
have to drink anything though. I hate the
way the contrast makes you feel, ya know a
whole body hotflash. I wonder if when you
have a hotflash like that does the baby
have one too? Oh well just curious!

Barium yep thats what its called, ive had
many many ultrasounds in my life (i have a
lot of medical issues) ive had both the iv
contrast and the barium, I have never been
able to drink the entire thing they try to
get me to, but I did have some good stuff
when I was little, it was at childrens
hospital and it tasted just like koolaid,
I had to drink almost 3 glasses instead of
just one but it was worth it....Sorry for
the rambliness, im hyper, for some reason
today ^_^

I had to drink 3 putrid bottles of the
$#@% stuff plus an iv wich made me feel
like I was in hell and made me feel like I
peed on the table . I hope that I never
have to do it again.

It was so disgusting!!! Omg, I cant even
describe how sick it was, just thinking
about it makes me want to vomit.
