I don't know whether this will reassure you, but a number of years ago the president of the 
American Society of Radiologists wrote a hilarious account of his experience during WW-II 
when his batman accidently mixed PoP instead of barium for upper GI exams and barium 
enemas performed on a group of soldiers.  Suffice it to say that the only ill-effects were rather 
prolonged constipation (which didn't seem to do any of them any harm), followed by 
mysterious loud "clanging noises" in the latrines.
