Hiya Op
i just recently had my first one, it’s quite fine honestly, try not to worry!
They’ll take you down to the radiography.
I was gowned up for this
they may inject a contrast medium to see everything properly, I had this. For that you have a cannula fitted.
you will lie down, probably arms over your head on the little bed trolley thing.
the contrast dye is injected into the cannula and they say it makes you feel like you peed yourself but you didn’t 😂 I found this to be true it’s very strange and you feel warm but it’s not overly uncomfortable, just strange!
then there’s a prompt telling you breathe in, hold, breathe out etc whilst they do the scans
it makes a sort of whirring noise but is open etc.
I will say I struggled with a severely altered taste and smell for about two days from the contrast but I think that may just be me, it’s never been right after my pregnancy last year!
Then somebody will talk through the findings with you and go from there
it’s great that they are investigating further and hopefully get to the bottom of things for you
I hope that helps xx
