Sounds like an allergic reaction. I think your doctors should be able to
premedicate you for the Iodine. YOu don't get the iodine until after the surgery
anyway.
Typical premed would be 50mg Prednisone, 300mg Zantac and 50mg Benadryl.
How did your saliva glands feel when you had the scan? When I was scanned a few years ago, it was Technicium used...and my saliva glands tingled.
Now they are not working 100% and I wonder if they were damaged by the radiation....hmmmmm?
