HIDA Scans SUCK!
HIDA scans suck! What's a HIDA scan you say.... Well let me share...
You get a needle shoved in your vein... Then you lay flat on your back under a machine that takes pictures of your gall bladder. First they inject radioactive dye into said port that is shoved into said vein... Then you lay there for an hour while said machine takes pictures...Fun! NOT. Then they inject some type of medicine that makes said radioactive dye empty from the gall bladder... At which point you want to hurl all over everywhere and your abdomen cramps up and death seems like a better alternative. See... Fun! Again... NOT! Now you lay there for another eternity (Ok not eternity... But 30 minutes) while Mr. Machine takes some more snap shops of your gall bladder. Eventually Mr. or Ms. Tech come back and take the big ass needle outta your arm and tell you it'll be a day or two before you know anything. Nice! NOT! So if your looking for a fun experience and enjoy that hurling feeling, abdominal cramping, and needles... Hurry and sign up for yours today via your gasternologist! On the up side maybe I'll finally find out if Mr. Gall Bladder is who sent me to the ER last month....
