Received abdominal CT Scan with contrast yesterday. Extremely Nauseous!

Yesterday I had an abdominal CT scan with contrast done due to having stomach pain, indigestion, bloating, not feeling completely emptied out, and excessive gas that has been going on for months. I was given an IV of the contrast dye and literally almost threw up on myself. I’ve never experienced anything like that before.

The scan only lasted about 20 seconds! I really hope the tech got good images because the study was so short. Is this normal??

After having the ct scan done I got some food and was extremely nauseated and almost threw up eating the food.

It is the next day and I am still extremely nauseated, constipated, and fatigued. Is this normal? If so, how long does this last?

Do rad techs/sonographers deal with vomit often?

Hi there! I’m currently considering going to school to be a rad tech or sonographer but I’m struggling to find out if you guys deal with vomit a lot. I am emetophobic (phobia of vomit) and, while I think I’d like these jobs a lot, it does worry me to think about having to deal with it often. Thank you for your help! submitted by /u/pootscoot1 [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/p5y0aa/do_rad_techssonographers_deal_with_vomit_often/

Radiology program

I’m from New York looking to attend a Rad tech program. I work for Northwell and recently came across a flyer for John Patrick University. it is an online AS program with clinicals in person (which my job will allow me to do) It seems as if this program is not accredited by JCERT but the school is accredited by ACCSC. I reached out to the director of the school and also the arrt and they say that there would be no issue taking boards. I haven’t really heard of anyone going through online program so I wanted to make sure everything checks out. Since this was being advertised at work I couldn’t see why they would put something that wouldn’t be accepted out.
