I believe you only need a couple of hours to go to the hospital for the x rays...and most of that is for registering and waiting.  You can call the docs office or the radiology dept where you are going to ask. I am a nurse and the gastric emptying studies I have seen are just xrays that take a few minutes.

turn off all music and TVs if they are on, put all phones on silent gab all the munchies and candy you want and just go for it for like 45 min to an hour then take a  15 min break and study after untill you feel you know the material.

While it is normal, for some people, not to have a BM every day, it is not normal to go 6 or 7 days without one.  Chances are that you just have chronic constipation but it would be best to see your physician to be sure there is not something else going on.  I recommend a visit to your doctor asap to be on the safe side.

My Address\n\n15 May, 2006\n\nDear Madam,\n\nI wish to request a four-day period of leave of absence from school.  After having seen my doctor earlier today\nhe suggested that I stay home for observation since I may be too tired and not able to concentrate clearly on my\nwork. \n\nI am hereby forwarding a copy of the doctor's note, in support of my request.\n\nI am looking forward to being at school soon.\n\nThank You\n\n..................\nStudent

how about changing your work study habits instead. Try a place thats quiet with no distractions, get up often and stretch or take a short walk in fresh air every 30-45mins. Don't snack while working change subjects or projects if you find yourself stuck or losing focus and then come back to it. There are lots of herbal and otc's that make claims but do any of the really work or cause more harm or just waste your money.

Don't study like crazy the week before. Study some, but take that week to de-stress yourself. Also, make sure you aren't hungry and sleep as much as you can.

"...gastric emptying, ... following a meal usually takes between 2 and 6 hours."  "Digestion and absorption of nutrients within the small intestine are rapid with most of the carbohydrate, protein, and fat being absorbed within 30 minutes after chyme (partially digested food from the stomach) has reached the small intestine."  "the presence of unabsorbed food  in the ileum (lower part of the small intestine) may increase the amount of time material remains in the small intestine and therefore may increase nutrient absorption."  These are direct quotes from the reference source noted below.\n\nFrom this, it seems reasonable to say that food is 'fully digested' 2 1/2 to 6 1/2 hours (or more) after eating.\n\nHope this helps and good luck!

Not tonight. I'm currently off sick but when at work I quite often have to work at all hours (I'm a coach driver)

Emotions and stress play a lot into how much we eat.  If you feel you are swamped with things to do, you will naturally eat faster (to save time of course) but in doing so, you will not be satisfied with what you have eaten.  \n    Even if you have to set aside at least 20 minutes for a meal, you should do this and then sit down and take a break while you eat.  It is much better than to keep getting up and running to the cupboards to get more snacks while you are studying.  You can snack while you study, but try to keep the snacks healthy:  fruits, veggies, rice cakes, popcorn and only eat from one bowl, don't keep getting up for more.  \n \nAnd realize too, that if you are stressed or emotionally drained you will want to eat more or just find yourself eating a lot of junk foods.  It's Ok to have  a splurge.  Dont' beat yourself up over it, otherwise, you may just continue to worsen your eating habits.  If you overindulge in some food, just get over it right away and vow to do better tomorrow (or better yet, the rest of TODAY)  \n\nHope this helps! and also, 3 10 minute exercise sessions still add up to 30 minutes and is much better than nothing.  Even 10 minutes for the day, if it's all you have time for.

Here's what to do:\n\nTake tomorrow off work sick.  That way it is more convincing when you take Thursday off too.  Sickness and diarrhoea is your best bet, noone can argue with you if you say you can't get off the loo!

Yea... Most likely after school (I end school at around 6pm due to Student Union work...) and i go on my computer at around 7-8pm to 11pm around 4-5 hours. :]

Ah. I actually looked up this not so long ago (had a debate with one of my managers).\n\n1. If you work more then 6 hours they must provide you with at least a 30 minute lunch.\n\n2. For every 4 hours worked they must provide you with at least a 10 minute break.\n\n"In California, an employer may not employ an employee for a work period of more than five hours per day without providing the employee with a meal period of not less than thirty minutes, except that if the total work period per day of the employee is no more than six hours, the meal period may be waived by mutual consent of both the employer and employee. A second meal period of not less than thirty minutes is required if an employee works more than ten hours per day, except that if the total hours worked is no more than 12 hours, the second meal period may be waived by mutual consent of the employer and employee only if the first meal period was not waived."\n\n"In California, the Industrial Welfare Commission Wage Orders require that employers must authorize and permit nonexempt employees to take a rest period that must, insofar as practicable, be taken in the middle of each work period. The rest period is based on the total hours worked daily and must be at the minimum rate of a net ten consecutive minutes for each four hour work period, or major fraction thereof."

I always tried to keep Sundays free and work hard on the other 6 days. I studied 2-3 hours a day outside of classes. Major was in Medical Laboratory Science.

California requires one half-hour unpaid meal period after 5 hours of work, unless the total period of work will be less than 6 hours and both the worker and employer agree to not have a lunch. A second meal is required after 10 hours unless the total will be less than 12 and both agree. The meal time must be paid if the worker is not relieved of all duties or required to remain on the premesis, even if relieved of all duty.\n\nIt further requires 10 minute paid rests every 4 hours or major portion, unless the time worked is less than 3.5 hours. The rest should come near the middle of the four hour time periods. There are many exceptions to these general rules, and they can be found at the sites below.

I would realistically decide how many hours a day I can study.  I would then divide that time into 50 minutes intervals.  I would take a 10 minute mental break every 50 minutes to get up and stretch.  I would try not to think of the big whole task as that would be over-whelming.  I would pretend that success or failure was not in taking the test but in studying the required amount of time.  To discipline my self in the study time I would have a timer.  I would also set up a simple spreadsheet where I could check the box for every time period I studied.
