MRI Tomorrow....

I have an MRI study done tomorrow. I've been at the Neurologist & a few other doctors all this week. It's total craziness! I am very clausterphobic & I am not looking forward to it. Then after that....not sure when....but I get to have a spinal tap! Ugh!?image

Re: MRI Tomorrow....

  • Sorry to hear that.  I've been through both and can sympathize.  Do you have the option to go to an open MRI?

    The Dr. was a quack, but the nurse I had when I got my spinal was the life saver. She kept me focused and was very comforting. 

    All I can say is I tried to mentally focus on other things, kind of pretend your in a different place.  Sorry is that sounds hokey, but it's been my coping mechanism for unpleasant medical testing.

     

    Hope all goes wellYes 

  • I've never been there, but I'm sorry you have to do this.  Good luck and we'll be thinking of you!

  • The place I am going does not have the Open MRI. That is the only kind I have had before. I think I shall take a Valium before I go so I don't freak out & screw the whole thing up.

    Shammy....if you don't mind me asking....why did you have to have a spinal tap? I had a spinal tap as a child & don't remember that one. I had one a few years ago, but yeh....that doctor was a quack....so now I get to go through all that fun stuff again. I will have had 7 doctor appointments by Friday.

    And thanks everyone.?image

  • That does NOT sound fun. Good luck, and I'll be thinking of you!

  • I got really sick as a teenager, very quickly.  They thought I had Meningitis.
  • You didn't have Meningitis?!? You are very lucky! I am being tested for a bunch of auto-immune diseases. I had one as a child & was paralyzed for awhile. I am also being tested for Lyme Disease. I was really sick back in September for over a month & a half with 3 really bad illnesses...plus I was having seizures. It would have been worse, but I take an anti-convulsant 3 times a day for my Fibro.?
  • I sent you a PM to follow up.
