CT scan radiations
I have 7 CT scans in my last 7 years ( total 7 CT scans entire life) 1 in 2017(CT Abdomen), 4 in 2020 ( CT Chest Covid Year), 1 in 2022 ( CT Coronary Angiography) and 1 in 2023 ( Coronary Angiography). Am I doomed to have cancer due to radiations ?

No you are not doomed . You are not at any serious risk of cancer based on these . The benefit of doing investigation outweigh the small risk of radiation exposure .
Don’t worry about this .
Please make sure that all investigations are done based on advice of a qualified modern medicine practitioner only. Unnecessary investigation should be avoided .
