Had a booked ct scan today in jubilee for abdomen ...

Had a booked ct scan today in jubilee for abdomen & pelvis after managing to get a cancellation. Was my first ct and as a young person who s never had a cannula before was quite nervous, but wanted to post as all of the staff were so lovely to me. I mentioned my fears having had a difficult blood test recently where my nurse at my doctors couldn t get blood out of me so was prodding for a while. Had cannula put in today so the contrast could be put in for the scan and it went straight in no difficulties, the nurses really put me at ease. They also helped me to put my jacket back on so I was warm whilst I waited to be called into the scanning room and when I said they were really good at putting the cannula in and didn t hurt as much as thought they said they were all thankfully quite good at darts in the department
Waited to be called for about 5 mins and the scan with the contrast took about 2 minutes in total, the whole experience was much quicker and not painful or distressing as thought it could be. The experience of having ct scan today went as well as it could have done and just wanted to express thanks to all staff in the department for making me feel at ease throughout.
