Siobhan,

If you can consume plenty of anti oxidants in your whole foods diet pre and post op the scan that would be ideal!

I personally am not leery of using homeopathic remedies as I understand how they work. But if you are not comfortable with using them, then just be sure to eat a high antioxidant clean diet.

Regarding the remark made by your doctor..... A conventional doctor will most likely be clueless about radiation protection from scans. He has no teaching in that sort of thing. However, that does not mean that protection is not possible.

Apis.... https://www.elixirs.com/apis.cfm

The best scan to have for the jaw and sinuses is one that targets those areas in multiple slices. Your oral surgeon is the one to determine which scan is best for your individual needs.

It looks to me my best (safest) bet is to stick to healthy food - Carotenoids, Black and green tea, beans, lentils, and garlic will be a must and easy to have.

I think I'll stay away from sea weeds as I've read about its potential toxicity and inability for the consumer to know where exactly was it harvested.

Also Homeopathic X-ray and Cadmium sulphuricum seem like something that only a more knowledgeable person could use, I am concerned I could make things worse.

I've (of course) combed the web on this topic and managed to memorise only a few things.
Eg. scientists seem to be divided on a few things, eg. if high levels of vit C are beneficial or actually counterproductive. I am currently using 1g in morning and 1g evening.

Seems like sticking to those good veggies, green tea (I read somehwere that it should be decaffeinated), beans and garlic. Also, very important is to avoid bad foods.

In regards to Apis mellifica, I am not sure what is it and in what form is it sold and how can I buy it ????

My doctor told me there is no such thing as protection from CT xrays (??).

I am also wondering if MRI of this region (jaws/sinuses) is a valid option to consider in lieu of CT? Would it show as good data as a CT scan? Can MRI show the jaw bones AND all soft tissues as well as CT??
