It depends on how they're running but it can take a while. I have the entire procedure written up in my profile - not in the blog in the part beneath.
Good Luck - Gaz is the best!!

Hi Shannon, Mine was about three hours. Between the ultrasound, bloodwork and meeting with the nurses it takes some time! Ann

If you are having a gall bladder ultrasound, it is about 4 hours. It's a lot of waiting I would bring a book lol I wished I had a book with me between my gall bladder ultrasound and my other pre-op testing.
