A member asked:
I've had severe allergic reactions to nuclear stress tests in the past (rashes), and i am scheduled to have a hida scan. should i cancel it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: the nuclear medicine doctor who will conduct the test will take a history first, and either use a different material or refers you to an allergist for an advice on wether you need a premedication before the study
