ultra sound is quick and not scary!. basically, they will put some warm jelly on you and rub a smooth scanner thing over your skin,,if you want to, they will show you the pictures during the scan, like watching TV,,it will be black and white and you probably wont even know what you are looking at, but kinda cool to see some images of your insides,,its not gross, so evenif you are squeemish, it wont be too freaky!. The actual test only takes 10-15 minutes!. do drugs, needles, shots or anything,,the people that do the tests do them allday long and they see ALL kinds of people, they will talk you through it, they are always very nice!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
It will take probably 15-30 minutes!.
They won't give you anything to calm down!. If you do have problems staying still, then the ultrasound might take a little longer than normal!. You need to try to remain as still as possible so they can see what they need to see properly!.
You will be fine to drive on your own and to go back to work!.
It is a very easy procedure!Www@Answer-Health@Com

An ultra sound shouldn't take over 15-20 minutes - not counting sitting in the waiting room!. They do not give you anything to calm you down so there isn't really a need for anyone to drive you!. Yes, you will okay to go to work after the test!. There is no pain or needles involved!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
When I got one done on my breast for a fibroadenoma, it didn't take very long, maybe 7-15 minutes, but since you're getting multiple UT's, then it'll take no longer that 20 minutes!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
