What are symptoms of getting radioactive iodine from a patient?

Radio active: Wrong question. You need to work hard to avoid that happening. If possible don't share a bathroom or toilet for a week after getting the radioactive iodine. If not feasible one of you must wait an hour or longer before sharing toilet facilities.
