Today's Scan

Today I had my 2nd scan that they gave me contrast. I feel like I can glow right now. I had a nucluer test done on my parathyroid. I had a MRI done for my Chiari. Don't know how much I can take right now. I am feeling sick to my stomach from the contrast they gave me. She said I wouldn't have any side effects. Sorry tech person..... I really don't get it.
I did find a different hospital to go to and it isn't that much farther to go from my house. I have also had Ct scan done with no contrast. I just hope all these test come up with something. Bad or good... I want to know.
If I take my calcium my calcium drops to 3.2. If I don't take my calicum... yep... it just up to 6.2. So something is going on. I am at 200 mg of  Levothyroxine and 600 mg of Calcium and I am taking .25 mg of Calcitriol 2 times a day. Can anyone shed some like on this. Thanks ... Janellle

Sorry I left that out.... it was for parathyorid scan. It was a bad scan at all. You were right Chiari is a brain problem. I just left out what type of scan I had.
I have low calcium levels and now I feel like I am coming down with something. Very tired.. can't sleep at night. This bits... I hate having a summer cold. It is more than likely allegries.
