i am scared about the ultrasound scan that is planned for 9.3 hours time.
not the scan as much as the fact i need to have a full bladder - an impossible feit for a person who has untreatable incontinence! I desperately want the scan to work as i need to know whats going on inside me, but having tried a month ago and failed to keep enough liquid inside me i fear it will not work this time either. it s bad enough that it has taken years to get my gp to listen to me without me not being able to meet the requirements for the only test they are offering!

Wishing you success this time, yellowted!
I wonder if they could do a scope or some other kind of test if the US doesn't work out.

I hope all goes well for you today.

Thankyou Echoes, the test went well eventually, after three attempts with a thirty minute wait and a bottle of water in between! i will get the results in 7 days time!

I'm so glad it went well! I know what test you are talking about as I have had it a few times myself and I can't stand that ultra-full feeling in my bladder! The having to drink the liquid and not using the bathroom before the ultra sound is torture!
