Saline IV Flush before MRI w/ contrast side effects

By

Is it normal to have a reaction to a saline injection into the arm, before getting a MRI? This isn’t the first time I’ve experience this. About 5-10 minutes after the injection, my whole body feels flushed and weak. I start to sweat and then get chills. It subsides in time, but quite alarming.

Note: the contrast came much later with no issues & I don’t think it was a heparin flush..

Is this a normal thing, have you heard of a response to and IV flush like this before?

Do rad techs/sonographers deal with vomit often?

By
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/
