    you'll be fine, very rarely people complain about anything afterwards, i was fine, i had to have a scan of my chest, abdomen and pelvic area and had to be injected with dye.

    All was fine, just felt shakey afterwards cuz of nerves

    thanks guys! feel much better abt it now! I had an eye exam and talked with the doctor twice and he thinks its nothing to worry about. eye test was completely normal and he assured me tht if it was brain related it would have been detected by the optician. better to be safe than sorry in these cases though methinks....that and im a right anxious *******!
