I know its been awhile sorry! I had a ct scan with contrast and without.
They can see if there is any masses or blockages. I think with the
contrast they can see more involement, or how everything is working
properly! It would'nt hurt if you mention the adhesions and the hyster
at least that way they know, i would but thats me lol!!! Most of the
time these radiologist don't say much they just pass the results to your
dr. Unless you get a good one teehee!!!Anyways tons of luck to ya! and
big hugs!!!
Love Colette
>Hi,
>Yesterday I went to the gastro, and he didn't seem too concerned. He said I'd vomit if I was blocked. He is sending me for a pelvic CT scan without the contrast. I am going for that tomorrow at noon. The surgeon pressed all over my belly, and listened using a stethoscope. He seemed confident I'm not headed for anything bad. He said he felt no masses, and the gastro said likewise.
>My questions are:
>What can the radiologist find on a pelvic Ct without the contrast?
>Can they see if my remaining organs are a mass from adhesions?
>Should I mention that to the radiologist if I get to talk to him?
>Could they see any twisting of the bowels?
>Should I mention the hyst, what all was removed, as well as the fact I have adhesions?
>Thanks.
