3 HEAD CT!!! HELP!!!!

[carola1986]

IM SOOOOOOOOO upsed and worried for just stupid reason in the last 12 months (with 4 months between each other) i had 3 HEAD CTS and 2 CHEST XRAYS, they all were fine and clean but now im SOOOOOOO WORRIED about getting cancer for the radiation, specially being 3 CTS IN 1 YEAR, ALL IN THE HEAD AND PLUS THAT IM 28 AND FEMALE..... Can u guys tell me ur HONEST opinion please, you think i would get cancer for the radiation of those 3 CTS!!!??? the thing that upsets me the most is that I did all that to assure i was fine and now that can cause something soooo bad

I wouldn't be too worried. I had 2 CT scans recently as well, one of the chest and one for the sinuses. They were both done at the same time. I was also worried at the time about the radiation. I found this calculator online that tells you how much your risk of cancer goes up from radiation. From those 2 scans I think it was only about 0.12% which is pretty much nothing. I'm not sure how accurate it is but I do think the risk is very small.
