I had the same test last December. Honestly it was a breeze, no concern at all. The contrast dye was nothing to be worried about, felt a warm flush and as though i was about to wee but it was over in five seconds. No need to be worried by it at all, truly.

I had one last year. I was very anxious but as others have said it wasn’t nearly as bad as I imagined. Just a bit hot with the contrast and that passed quickly

Wife had hers done privately at Exeters RD&E January 2020. Really simple procedure and nothing to worry about.

No problem, it is a very common procedure and the 'contrast' solution is soon dispersed.

Mine was easy as pie -- though the 30-second flushing of the body when the dye goes through veins feels a little unusual. It's really nothing to worry about.

As with other posters I experienced brief reaction to the dye, otherwise the worst part was lying on a hard board during the procedure.
