Anyone Get Headache from Pill taken for Nuclear Scan?

Just took my pill this morning and have to go back tomorrow for the test. Started getting a headache right after I ate lunch, but was told by hospital staff that there would be no side effects.

Wondering if anyone experienced this or is it just a headache?

Thanks - Laurie

I didn't have a headache.  I hope your headache is gone now!  I will share (sorry) that I had horribly loose stools for a few days.  Ick...I'm sure that was from nerves though!
Hope you're better today!
