Hello. I've never had a ct scan, but try and keep calm and trust that the doctors/techs know what they are doing. Practice deep breathing and maybe meditate during the test, guided meditations are nice and calm my nerves whenever I'm in a stressful situation (headspace.com is a great resource). I'm sorry I'm probably no help, but I hope all goes well.
The Drs doing the scan will reassure you and tell you everything that's
Going to happen.
Try not to worry as this is totally painless . Just try and think of something nice
When your in scanner, sometimes they have headphones with music too.

hi megs, my o/h has had a few of these, the iodine is to help with the resolution on the scan, just an injection before you go in, there is normally no problems with it, hope the scan goes well, love jasper xx
It gives you a cool and warm sensation when it's injected. Almost feels like you peeing your pant but you not. It's a pleasant test. Rest easy Meg.
Hi Meg,
That's exactly as Brian said it is, really nothing to do it, I had one.xx
Thanks all. Just scared cause my sister in law had a bad reaction to it I guess nd im just scared I will too.
