Re: Maysa's bump is most likely a dermoid

[Guest guest]

Jake had a CT scan when he was 3 months old. It wasn't bad at all.

Actually, the hardest part was having to have him fast for like 8

hours before the scan because they thought he'd have to be sedated.

For a 3 month old, 8 hours is like an eternity not to eat, but he

held up ok. In the end, they said they would try to get the scan

once without sedating him. We had to strap and hold him down but we

got it on the first try and skipped sedation which I was really

happy about. I'm not sure if all techs would try it that way or not,

but it's worth asking. The scan itself took like 5 seconds.
