Pelvic MRI with and without contrast

bratcatMember

Hi.

I am going for a pelvic MRI with and without contrast tomorrow due to a fistula. When I was on the phone with the radiology place the girl said two things. First, to stop eating 4-6 hours before the test (it's at 1:30pm), but then said to take a Dulcolax today (really 24 hours before the test). So am I supposed to have completely empty bowels? Should I take the laxative (or is that really more for those who have a colon and don't poop all the time)? Just stop eating early today (midnight?)? I'll do take a Dulcolax but don't want to if it's not necessary. I explained that she contradicted herself but she was not very smart! Lol.
