Morning all.
So in the past 10 weeks NHS gave me 1 perfusion only scan and 6 chest X-rays. As I was still worried about having a clot on my lung I spoke to a private GP about having a ctpa to rule out a clot and put my mind at ease. The reason for still being nervous is due to an ECG showing a right bundle branch block which can be caused by a clot on the lungs. My GP reassured me that I would be fine having this test and the risks are extremely small even after my other tests. So off I went to have it done and now I feel so stupid for doing it as I can't stop googling how dangerous all the radiation is.
Has anyone else had a lot of tests done? Specifically chest CTs or CTPAs.
I thought this test would make me better but it's made me worse.
Please help x
