Had another MRI scan this morning and this time it was quite tolerable

A full body scan takes 1 hour

Much wider tube and at times my head was entirely out of the tube

My choice of reggae and 10mg diazepam is quite the cocktail lol

Well that my yearly scan I am hoping it shows stability and non progression

PSA now 0.3 its gonna be a good year for us I can feel it

Yep had one the other day. Like laying in a closed casket with someone hitting it with a sledgehammer while heavy equipment backs up beeping all the way! Hopefully the liver just has fatty deposits.

I hope so for you brother. Last tube I was in was the first time since covid and wearing a mask. My own breath stunk like fish . I could barley take it . My adt gives me bad breath .. my poor wife suffers .

Well if you shrank those “ HULK “ sized muscles a bit you’d probably fit into tubes for us regular , non Hercules , type regular guys yayahahahaya yayahahahaya. Sounds like you have things under control, herze hoping your scans are very favorable. Good for you brother.

Yea I like reggae as well. I listen to the Reggae chill station on Pandora mostly, it’s number one on my station list. It auto connect to my car and will “ cast “ into my main audio system ( 7 ch Onkyo ) on the TV set. While I like him a lot, IMHO they play too much Ernest Ranglin and not enough Marleys, Richie Spice, Jah9, Erykah B ...etc. it’s perfect with my “ special “ cookies ( 1gram decarb per ) that I make for my wife. Xanax too yayahahahaya yayahahahaya. Gets my head into that cool mellow glow wonderful place I love so much . 😊

Bless up, mi den yah bredda 🌸🌼🌻🌈🦋❤️❤️❤️

My final day of 8 weeks imrt they played for me .. “ stairway to heaven” and “ the final countdown” I thought it weird messaging at the time . Like they were saying addios mo fo. years later I went back and mentioned that to the tech . She said “ We don’t do that anymore” Thank God . I was in St. John’s when “ don’t worry , be happy , came out” a classic . 🤙🏽✌️

Had one last Thursday for my lower back (which is a mess - not due to PSA - just due to misuse and arthritis) and it didn't bother me as long as I could see out of the tube.. which I could just do at the furthest point in. I found the noises actually rather cool, I was trying to come up with a musical line from them, but didn't succeed. Maybe next time.

I like to imagine my hydrogen atoms throughout my body "dancing" to the various rhythmic beats of the magnetic fields. Revealing their secrets to be seen.
