on Monday
I'm going to be swallowing some radioactive gunk at the hospital. I'm currently enjoying the following extract from the 'WTF' guide:
"In this test you drink some barium liquid. The barium liquid is often fruit flavoured so it is OK to drink."

yes. because everything that is fruit flavoured is fine to drink.

It's very much like chalk
and if it were toxic, they wouldn't be making you drink it.

mmmm!
sounds tasty :)

no, I know, though it is radioactive - so I'd imagine if you did about 15 litres or so, you *might* glow in the dark...

If it (barium sulfate) were more soluble it would be toxic (barium isn't good for the body)
but as it is you shit it straight out.

I learnt about that.
It's perfectly safe.

If it was Beryllium it would kill you.

huzzah!
how about Bn - Benylin, v 2, aw 99?

And it would be bloody useless
as it wouldn't show up on the X-rays.
( The Mock TurtIe ™ --- Thinks you are a cunt, on, Fri 12 Jan 2007, 20:17, archived)

The Barium sulphate molecules are just big enough =)
Anyway, if it was Beryllium then you wouldn't need x-rays.

I've done that a few times.
You shit white for a day or two.
