    I don't know of anyone that has ever had a reaction to it. I think it is pretty rare.

    Re: worried about contrast

    It's been a while but I had several of them before, during and after cancer treatment as well as for heart exams and I can tell you from personal experience, it's nothing to worry about. It just feels a little weird is all. I was put on an IV and they told me they were injecting the contrast and I would feel it. No pain or anything, just weird. It went away quickly as well. Don't sweat it really
