A member asked:
My mom had a cardiac stress test today with dye. all went well, but tonight she's having terrible diarrhea. is this normal? should be be concerned?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It is unlikely that: the two are related. There is nothing about the nuclear imaging agent that would cause diarrhea. Did she eat in the hospital cafeteria after the test was completed? That would probably do it.
