Do you know if x-ray exam could cause people feeling tired and dizzy?

is somewhat weak and unhealthy, then he/she may feel uncomfortable ---- Not necessarily due to X-ray per se, maybe due to something else (e.g., noise, even just mental stress: 太紧张)

Theoretically YES.

X-ray is EM radiation. (So does gamma ray.)

High-dose radiation could cause people feel tired, dizzy or even death.

Under normal condition, X-ray exam won't give people over-dose x-ray radiation. However, in case the X-ray machine has problem, it may.

In real life, we had experience that Co-60 (gamma ray source) machine did not cure but kill people.

not noramlly for any plain plate X-ray tests, eg. chest/abdominal x-ray; but certain people do experience nausea and vomiting when contrast is used for the procedure. The adverse effects usually does not last long and subside within hours.

Thanks. Both me and my daughter feel a little dizzy after an x-ray. I have noticed it for many years.
