I never worried about this when my husband had several PET scans over the years - but I was healthy and he was the one with tickborne illnesses.
I do remember the docs telling him that the SPECT scan he had done might be detected by any airport security scans (I think they actually said for up to 48 hours) but we drove and did not fly so that was not a concern.
If it was me I would not be overly worried about being near your hubby.

It's probably radioactivity that can not go from one person to another?
Hope all goes well!
PS .. As for his health in getting the radiation out, tell him to drink LOTS of water and take vitamin C .. drink smoothies, anything to flush his system.
