CT Scan with contrast is a b!tch of a test. Fasting required. Then you have to drink a liter of a vanilla-flavored barium solution. Then, when you go in for the test, they give you something foul to drink. Finally, you have to lie still on the table for about 30 minutes.

Not fun.

Sounds terrible. Not like something Hillary has had the time or energy for on the campaign trail.

My sympathies to you!

I’ve had several of them. The worst part is drinking all that horrible slop.

I just had a contrast CT scan for a lump on my neck. I was injected with some kind of dye and experienced no pain, just a slight hot flash. I then lay down on a flat bed that rolled me under the scanner. It was all over in a few minutes.

No fasting, no vanilla barium solution no lying still for 30 minutes. No BS.

I have had several CT scans in Norway. They have always injected the contrast. It gives me a warm, fuzzy feeling.

That raises the question - when were these tests performed?

The press claims they were with her all day on Friday, yet that’s the day when supposedly she had the tests and was diagnosed.
