my 89 yr old mom had a pet scan at 10 this morning, was not very hungry but ate small amount of food. also took bp meds and pain meds throughout the day, about 10 pm she became nauseated and has vomited 3 or 4 times, it s almost 3 am and she is resting at the moment. also has abdominal pain . should we go to the hospital or go to her dr in the am? YOU COULD HAVE TOLD ME THIS WAS A PAY SITE! I WOULDNT HAVE WASTED TIME TYPING ALL THIS CRAP IF I HAD KNOWN THAT FROM THE BEGINNING...THANKS FOR NOTHING
Hi, As per information provided by you, your mother 89 years of age is having nausea and vomiting after more than 10 hours following PET scan. I do not think this is due to any adverse reaction to the PET scan as such. Still going by her age and that she has vomited 3-4 times, I suggest you take her to your hospital and get her examined by doctors. We don't know, but she may be going in for deny Chat Doctor. Take care
