    Hey, why do you NEED a bone scan? What does your OBY/GYN say?

    I'm early on so I don't have an OB/GYN yet. And I did something to my wrist.

    I'd make sure that the tech who does the scan - or schedules the scan - knows you are pregnant.

    Sometimes these procedures HAVE to be done so you don't have problems with your wrist down the line.

    Are they talking about an x-ray or a scan?

    Yeah. :/ I'm thinking of just staying in the splint for another month and see if it gets better.
