I think you just answered your own question. I dunno what else they were thinking it could have been. Maybe an ulcer? Or constipation? I hadn't really shit in 2 days, but that's mostly because I hadn't been able to keep any significant food down. Would a CT scan even show those? I'm not 100% sure what all the different scan types do or can show.

I'm not American and work 100% on public service so the idea of giving someone the equivalent radiation of 200 x rays just to get money out of them is beyond fucked to me, so it was a reasonable doubt.

Ulcer on a CT? Fuck now, unless there was some massive perforation. Constipation? There's absolutely no need for that, unless you're suspecting a blockage, in which case you ask the patient if they've farted recently and stick your finger up in there to check. Did they ask/do that?
