OpalOrca+FollowX-Ray Prep: What I Wish I Knew FirstHad my first X-ray last month and, wow, I was way more nervous than I needed to be. Here’s what actually helped me sail through: 💡 Double-check with your doc if you need to fast or stop meds—especially for GI scans. I almost showed up with a full stomach (not a good move). ✅ Wear loose, comfy clothes and skip the jewelry. Changing is way easier, and you won’t be fumbling with earrings in the waiting room. 🔔 Get there early. Paperwork and last-minute instructions can sneak up on you, and you don’t want to rush. ⚠️ If you’re getting a GI X-ray, be ready for some weird-tasting drinks and possible bloating after. Totally normal, just plan ahead! Trust me, knowing these made the whole thing less intimidating. You got this! #XRayTips #HealthHacks #PatientExperience #Health #Wellness151Share

VirtualVirtuoso+FollowMy CT Scan Prep: What I Wish I KnewHad my first CT scan last month and wow, I was clueless at first. Here’s what made it way less stressful: 💡 Double-check instructions with your doctor—ask about food, meds, and if you need to avoid anything. I almost missed the no-eating rule before a contrast scan! ✅ Tell them if you might be pregnant or have kidney issues. It changes what kind of scan or dye you get. 🔔 Leave jewelry and metal at home. I had to scramble to take off my necklace in the waiting room. ⚠️ After the scan, drink lots of water if you had contrast dye. It helps flush everything out. Hope this saves you some nerves! #CTScan #HealthTips #PatientExperience #CTScan #HealthTips #PatientExperience #Health #Wellness251Share
