I've been feeling really worried because I started shivering and got a high fever just a few hours after my CeCT scan of the thorax. Should I be concerned about this, and is it something that could go away on its own in a day, or is it more serious?

I'm wondering if it's safe for my 16-year-old daughter to get a chest x-ray. I know she's been advised to have one, but I'm concerned about how appropriate it is for her age. Should we be worried about any risks or try to avoid the x-ray altogether?

if compulsory then you can take

I recently had a CT scan because of some abdominal pain I've been experiencing, and I noticed that I was shivering during the contrast. Is this something that's considered normal? Also, I've been taking a 10mg Tryptomer tablet once a day. Could it be related to this? Any insights would be really appreciated.

Yes thats normal,no need to worry,follow your doctors advice
