Risk of radio active exposure to third parties has no “threshold” just a gradually decreasing risk. leaving a complete [24hours] after the end of the day [12 midnight] of your test [dependent on test time] would seem a sensible compromise

Also they had run out of tablets at the hospital , I had a vile medicine , but some hospitals have advised tablets the day before and on the day , just concerned. Tgankyou so much for the reply

The wait can definitely be nerve wracking
