Should I take Sudafed to clear up my congestion
before the CT Scan ?

Thanks,

Tony

I wouldn't.

Let the CT scan show your sinusitis in all its glory--congested, full of
mucus, etc.

Don't irrigate just before the CT scan either.  Because any saline fluid
remaining in the sinuses may show up on the CT scan and be confused with
mucus.
