Feeling general weakness and tingling after x-ray. is it normal?

No: An x-ray should not cause weakness or tingling. It may be an underlying condition you have causing your symptoms or anxiety after getting an x-ray. Best wishes.

No: Radiation exposure from diagnostic x-rays is trivial and shouldn't cause any symptoms in of themselves. Perhaps you are experiencing symptoms from the preparations for the xray procedure.
