    CT Scan with contrast on Friday.

    Just wondering what is it like when the inject the contrast as i am a little worried...

    Also worried incase they find out the leison on my liver is something bad but then surely if they thought it was bad from when they seen it on the urogram then i would have been rushed to have another CT not 8 week's later?

    Anywho just after some advice

    Same here, I felt like I was gonna wet myself after they injected the serum. I also felt very cold after the procedure, it could been my anxiety...

    Hi, I had the same scan done for a benign tumour on my liver... like others have said - you feel like you are peeing yourself. But its over very quickly.

    Hope it went OK!

    Well it all went well, was the weirdest taste in mouth lasted 5 seconds or so then i got a weird warm feeling in my groin area.

    I asked how long it takes for the result's she said that normally they are passed straight on to the consultant the same day (is that normal?) and she said my consultant is normally fast with contacting me, i said i dont have an appointment to see she said he will phone me or send a letter, then my HA kicked in why did she say phone first (stupid i know)...

    Anyhow now is the worst part of waiting for the results :(!
