If you've seen my thread entitled "Upper Endoscopy questions", you can ignore that one now. Apparently my GI changed his mind rather abruptly and scheduled me for a CT scan even though he said last week that he wanted to do an upper endoscopy. Kind of weird, but anyway, I'm having a CT scan next week. I had mentioned all of this in my last thread, but thought that this deserved its own thread and not to just be tacked on to the endoscopy thread.
They told me I'm going to have both a barium IV and I'm going to have to drink the barium too. How awful is it to drink? Is it hard to keep down? What's the best flavor? Any tips on getting & keeping it down and not spewing during the scan? Or, any humorous stories about spewing during a scan?
