Question:
What are the risks - and potential side effects - of having a contrast dye test? Hysteosalpingiogram?
Answers:
one thing to be careful of for tests that use contrast dye is allergic reactions - if you are allergic to iodine or shellfish , you could have a serious reaction to the dye
also, dye should be avoided in people who have kidney problems or renal failure, because the kidneys filter the waste out of your body, dye can be very hard on the kidneys - also a lot of fluids are usually used to help flush dye out of the system which is also very hard on someone with any kidney issues
