I had the CT scan because I have developed a nauseating, quite intense at times, but always there, pain 6 weeks after my hysterectomy. It is in my lower lower quad area, not my colon nor my ovary area. It started after a horrendous IBS attack two weeks ago. I know my typical colon pain, and this is not it. It very hard to describe, but since this pain, I have had a tremendous loss of appetite, and have lost a lot of weight. My new GI doctor wanted to check for adhesions, or anything else that can explain this unGodly pain. It's almost like a very agressive pinching pain, and when it is severe it's very painful. I cannot drink barium because I have GERD and I vomit it because it's too thick, so they have an alternative contrast you can drink the day of the CT scan. You have to drink 32 ounces 1 hour before the scan. I am averaging going at least every half hour, lots of stomach rumbling and when I have to go I have to go....I just can't believe it's been now 13 hours and I'm still going.....I tried the rice and pretzels because I'm getting really hungry, but now I'm just going to have some peppermint tea, which does not bother my GErd, take a Levsin, for my IBS, something to sleep and try to go to sleep in hopes I won't crap (sorry) anymore. My bottom can't take it anymore. Prayers for everyone!!
