Like Lala two posts above me I was fine with all the various contrasts - PET, CT, MRI, MUGA and then one day I broke out in hives right after a CT scan. ALL. OVER - I was an itchy crazy person - but I had already left the radiology department and just sat in the lobby of the hospital and monitored myself (I know I know - dumb and I won't do anything like it again).
For my CT scan last month I premedicated with Decadron and still broke out in a few hives. Next time - more steroids I guess.
