Barium + Iodine = Meh
Today went in for a CT of the small bowel. Why would I have to check in at 6:45 for an 8:00? Well that’s because I had to drink 3 16 bottles of Barium! THEN I had to get prepped with a catheter so that during the CT scan they pumped a shit ton of Iodine into my blood. What does that spell? Dehydration and lots of nasty barium poop! Extra bonus, no caffeine or alcohol. Although they said if I drank 64 oz of water today I could have 1 or 2 drinks tonight.
Meh, and the company christmas party is tonight.
