I had an abdominal CT scan with oral contrast that was iodine (radioactive) and had a terrible reaction.

I just looked up the glucose injection Fluorodeoxyglucose and apparently it is okay for kidneys so I will look into that.

Spinal fractures don't affect hip. The pain at hip is far greater than other places and I expected more severe arthritis there, not "mild." Like I say, I tend not to be a worrier so I have not pushed for scans. I'll take care of the small hard lump first- probably a cyst

I had mild tinnitus and forgot about at an immersive museum musical performance. Tinnitus went way up. I was distressed but have accommodated to it. It does go up and down (leaf blower in next door yard for instance). I am nervous that it will increase permanently again but will of course so an MRI that is absolutely necessary. Neuro wants one of neck but asked if I would change what I was doing knowing results and I said no, no surgery yet, so he cancelled it!
