Hi guys,
I know I posted about the extreme D (or what seemed "extreme" to me) after my gastrograffin (iodine) intake for the ab/pelvic CT scan.
However, it's Monday & I'm home from work today - uncomfortable ab cramping (stomach & lower Ab)...where even a sip of water can set it off. I'm nauseous too - this AM getting up, thought truly I would be sick. It's crazy. I hate the CT people & their care-lessness now...I should have refused the iodine stuff & done barium instead, regardless of their opinions. It's the receptionist that prepared the contrast too! Truly - what do they know about possible affects based on my (IBSy) condition??!
I know most of you aren't medical professionals - so I guess I'm looking for someone(s) else who has also experienced this discomfort, this long after the test. Help? Not sure when it's time to call Dr. about this...
[Guys - sorry in advance!] - there's a possibility that the cramping could be hormone related too - though the pain & location is different than usual. But "P day" has been delayed 5+ days...so I guess anything is possible.
