I have got a date for the DEXA scan, a friend told me it's okay but the list of instructions seem a bit daunting to me! I'm really glad I have a date at last!
So glad
i had mine on Wednesday, absolutely fine
nothing to worry about
Thanks ️ I think it might be the journey to the hospital which is the hardest part then!
Easy leash and you lie down and they tell you to move a certain way and take pics and all done. A breeze.

Hi It is fine I was worried as very scared of enclosed spaces but the machine moves over you rather than you going in it. I did have to have radio active inserted through canular before having this and same for Muga scan on heart. You will be fine x The hardest scan I had was MRI very uncomfortable and noisy. X
