Question about Cat Scan?

Will I be able to go back to work after a Cat Scan? My cat scan is at 11:45, will I be able to go back to work after til 5, or will I need the afternoon off?

I would think you should be able to go back...the only thing I could think of that would prevent that is if you are allergic to the contrast dye they use...otherwise you can go back that afternoon

You should be able to go back. They might use a contrast die, but it should have little or no effect on your ability to work.
