nh-vsgirl 102 Posted October 21, 2016 No, I'm thinking it's probably similar to the crap they make you drink before a abdominal catscan? So friggen nasty lol I'm just hoping I don't gag. happy Llama sad Llama... big fat mama Llama. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Melsyboo 43 Posted October 21, 2016 Mine was about a cup of barium. Thick white chalky stuff. Before that was a tiny amount of Alka seltzer stuff. They make you roll around on the table to coat your stomach. It wasn't horrible but glad it's over. I hope they told you the barium goes out the same color it went in LOL. so don't be shocked when you poop!
