Has anyone ever had adverse reaction to a cat scan with contrast.  I don't know 
if I had an adverse reaction or sheer coincidence, but about 30-60 minutes 
after the cat scan, I developed pain (I think neurological) which I still have 
24 hours later.  My lesions are at T7-T10 and this pain is about 3-4 inches 
right of my spine and about 4 inches up from my waist and in my groin area on 
the right side.  I reported this to my Internal Medicine doctor's nurse and 
naturally she said it could not be from the radiation or the contrast but 
rather just lying on the hard table for 15 minutes.  I didn't feel 
uncomfortable, but I could have strained getting off the table.  I tend to 
think that the pain in my back is neurological and the pain in my groin is 
muscle, but I don't know.  Respond if you have any ideas.
