    Wouldn't do it
    Good morning.

    I'd hold off any liquids until after the procedure. Can't say for sure on ulatrasound, but my experience with any scans or tests, is that want you to be food and drink clear after midnight the day before the procedure.

    It will be over soon and then you can enjoy something.

    Just would not take the chance to give them something else to worry about.
