Severe upper left to mid abdominal pain, sometimes radiates to back

@mechanic66 I have heard that often in the ER, they don’t use contrast, maybe takes longer or could possibly add a complication…and it seems possible that’s why their CTs miss things…is that true ?

@nycmusic They used contrast in my CT scans both times and I guess it can cause complications with some people but I didn't have any issues with it. They told me that If you have to have another scan that they wait 24 hours in between scans with contrast so it clears out if your system before you can have another scan with contrast.
