Brennan, I did more research on the iodine/shellfish thing. I guess they have changed their tune in the past few years! I did research a long time ago and "everyone," including Mayo, had been saying don't have Iodine if you have a shellfish allergy. Well, I guess now they've backed off of that stance. Every single time and on every single "form" before a CT, they ask if someone has an allergy to shellfish. Unreal. It always makes me question if this is health driven or drug company driven.

It hardly matters what studies say when you DO react to a drug so strongly. You should never have that drug again.
