Well tomorrow is the day that I have the MRI that Dr ordered before our move. Only took 2 weeks to get it. If I was having an ms related episode hopefully I didn't create anymore lesions. My poor old brain is running out of room. But we will see the results on August 8. Blessings to all.

Doubled51 , Good luck on your MRI. I have heard many complain about them, but I have never experienced any problem.

This will be #6 since March30th. I'm claustrophobic so they ain't any fun. But just the brain scans not bad. A couple of ativans and I'm ok. Only takes 30 minutes or so. Just gonna be a long week waiting for results. I'm a little nervous on this one after all this moving and everything else that's fine wrong. But hoping for the best. Love and blessings to all.

I know what you mean! I'm claustrophobic too. I always take Valium before I have an MRI. Tried to make it through my first MRI, NOPE, had to film my brain twice. New neuro made sure I was sedated for my second one. Never knew it only took 30 mins! Always seemed to take forever! Even the open (which it's not) MRI booth is closed! My next one is in 6 months then my neuro will discuss if Ocrevus is a go, but not until he sees where I am.

HUGS and PRAYERS for you during the week it takes your MRI results to come back.

Doubled51 firstly make sure your bladder is empty before you go in. Secondly from your posts it is apparent that you are a praying man. Well a good friend taught me to close your eyes before you enter the scanner, then pray alphabetically for everyone you know and their needs. I haven't made it through the whole alphabet yet as I keep remembering people. I make it into a game and before you know it they have finished and you are out. For me the first stop is the bathroom, lol. I hope and pray that it all goes well and wait with you in anticipation of good results. Blessings Jimeka 🦋 🙏 🌈
