Is Feeling Nauseous Normal After Some Time Of Undergoing A HIDA Scan?
Hi, I had a hida scan today. I felt fine during the test. No pain or nausea, but about 30 minutes afterwards I started feeling really nauseous and it has continued throughout the day. Is this normal? Also since there wasn t any pain or nausea during test, does this mean my gallbladder is okay? Thank you for your help!

Hello,
Nausea can be possible after the procedure if dye injected for contrast purpose, stress or anxiety of test result; site-specific sickness inducing such changes in many cases.
Current nausea has nothing to do with HIDA scan reports or your gallbladder functioning.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
