Hi

I'm currently 21wks 1 day and have been on blood thinning injections since 20wks as a precaution, hospital have requested I have a VQ scan done to rule out any clots on my lungs. Has anyone else experienced this and how is the VQ scan done, is it painful/uncomfy?

I also have a holiday booked in 3 weeks to Turkey so concerned about flying now and if I'll even be able to go?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated 😊
