Made it through the CT scan fine with no reactions but a day later I am feeling really weak especially in my hands. Has anyone experienced a delayed reaction like this to the dye. I was feeling real good last night and was thinking I may be turning a small corner. Today I have to say I am a bit discouraged.

Any kind of stress will cause an increase in MG symptoms. The dye reaction that I experienced was immediate. It occurred within 8 seconds of injection.
