As with most medications, gadolinium MRI contrast agents have a known risk of commonly mild and self-limiting adverse reactions. Unfortunately, pride, liability concerns, and dogmatic medical school teaching to “think horses, not zebras” leads most doctors to reflexively discount the possibility of severe adverse reactions to the medications they prescribe.
Boy did you nail that one. Had a hand Ortho tell me his Celestone steroid injection didn’t cause the 2 weeks of H I went through. Mederol based are 3 days.
Bentyl neurological reactions was right in front of the nurse administering it, she never put it in my hospital chart, noted it as MISSED dose, and next 2 nurses brought it in, thankfully it is a pill and they have to wake you, I told them I’d had a bad reaction; they noted it as Missed Dose too. I REAMED out the doc the next morning and it got off my script list. Unfortunately he order an even worse 1, Cytotec which is used in early stage abortions...A person in unknown AB pain, that is not a drug to give, nor to a Pro Lifer. I hate when they are IV and they sneak in and hang the stuff. Zoysin destroys my vision very quickly and takes nearly a month to recoup. MS Contin is instant reaction too.
