You don't have to burn out those around you - that is what WE are for. And - even better we know and understand because we have been there. Many of us aren't experts, but we are experienced.

I didn't mean to make too light of the issue about how much radiation you should have. It is a valid concern for alot of people, but when we have it as a lifesaving tool, I don't tend to worry about it much. I even got to have a chuckle the other day about news reports re radiation from cell phones, as I'm long past worrying about things like that!
