Diatrizoate (Cystografin).

I can't swallow pills either. They tried to coach me on how to do so, but I told them from the jump that I have never been able to swallow pills. They ended up skipping that part of the test on me.

Did it hurt you?

Only when they are putting the catheter in… it feels like someone is stabbing and poking in there

do u have stricture?

Damn how do we detox

I was going to go in tomorrow but now I’m not I’m worried it might be necessary but I really don’t wanna take my chances I don’t wanna die

@@ashleyy-gx5fr most the time they don't even need to use contrast. Just tell them you don't want it. I told them this one time and they did the CT scan without it

@@frontlinemedia4270 is it still the same though? Will ct with no contrast miss something one with it will not?

@@ashleyy-gx5fr ppl are getting injections and they don't even realize it

I'm sure she meant AP view.

Why do you say this; when you've got problems they need to check your 'whatever' system. If you thought that was invasive, Google the word defecography - we do a few/week at MGH Boston.

@@karlellison5094 It's difficult to poop on demand. I'm pee shy, too. 🙁

Contrast passing into the testicle is unlikely. If there was a severe urethral and scrotal injury, the contrast could enter the scrotum around the testicles. This is very uncommon. It would not damage the testicles or scrotum. Thanks

These procedures do involve genitalia, but they are not intended to be sexual in nature. Sexual assault is not determined by female-to-male contact as it can be perpetrated by anyone regardless of sex or gender. What is ultimately important is the consent of the patient in mind. If that is violated, then the perpetrator is guilty of committing assault and battery.

Shahir Monsuruddin So if the patient does not want a tech of opposite gender and asks for a same gender tech it is in all actuality sexual abuse. My thing is many men do not seek treatment because they feel as violated as women would if they were forced to have a male mammography tech. But, men who say how they feel are ridiculed so they either do not go to get medical help or suffer in silence.

"My thing is many men do not seek treatment because they feel as violated as women would if they were forced to have a male mammography tech." Any evidence to support that? I'm genuinely curious about this topic and would like to learn more. As far as I know, many men don't seek treatment or health maintenance with physicians because a) they're busy with work and don't want to ask for time off; and b) we're conditioned to tough it out. There are many other factors, but a and b definitely apply to me, to be perfectly honest. But I'm always open to expand my knowledge.

Shahir Monsuruddin A couple of places you might are Dr Maurice Bernsteins Bioethics site about this. He has been discussing for many years now. Issue not going away. Also Dr Joel Sherman and Doug Capps have had discussions on male modesty. Another site Medical patient modesty. Hope you find some reading you find interesting. If you find typo errors, I just had eye surgery and can't see well.

The answer to your question is that we as techs are very aware of how are patients feel when having procedures in the genatilla area, so in most radiological departments a male tech is assigned to assist the radiologist as would a female tech for a female PATIENTS, however if this were late at night (AFTERHOURS) and by chance there was a shortage of male/female techs available than a nurse or CNA of the same sex X the patient would be asked to be A chaperone during the procedure. The patient at anyti e during the procedure can request it to be stopped if they should feel uncomfortable. We as techs take our jobs very serious and while there are a small few bad seeds as in any profession the majority are very ethical and care very highly about patient rights

kkstar 12 ... don't take PPIs if you can avoid it. They will make the reflux worse over time, and the damage will be worse. If on a reduced sodium sort .... come off of it and get checked for LOW acid levels.... not high.

That's a blessing.

What type of surgery did you have I've had the same experience was very embarrassing for me
