MRIs are over 😊

[Juleigh21]

They started at 8:45 and were over by 11:10. I get my MRIs done at the doctor's office. He claims his machine is one of the strongest in the US and he doesn't offer music since it's so loud. The man doing the MRIs started with the brain, then c. spine, t. spine. Next came the contrast. Back to t.spine, then c. spine, and ended with the brain. I was given 3 opportunities to get up and move around. I took Valium prior to the test b/c of the difficulty I have had in the past with stiffness and spasms. Now I wait... I see my doc on October 9th. I'm hoping/expecting no change since last year b/c of the Tysabri. I'm still a groggy from the Valium. Thank you everyone for your advise and concern!! I love this group of people!!!

Ky prayers for you that they show no changes. I had my high resolution MRI with contrast, which thankfully showed no changes since last time.

jimeka Hidden thank you for your kind words! I am so grateful that the MRIs are over😌. I'm always stressed leading up to them and waiting for the results. So much emphasis is put on the MRI results by all the MS neurologist I've had.

Long time in that tube...I hope you aren't too stiff or sore today after lying still all that time. Praying you receive good news on the 9th. Thank you for the update!! 💕

[Juleigh21 in reply to WAshingtongirl]

WAshingtongirl I am actually surprised by how stiff and fatigued I am today 😳

[WAshingtongirl in reply to Juleigh21]

I've been the same after tightening my muscles to lay still for any amount of time. Hope you feel better as the day goes...💕

Juleigh21 My back starts to hurt after I have been on my back after an MRI, no matter how long they last

Congratulations on successfully making it through another MRI. Love the button! I want one.

Glad the MRIs are over for you. My first one was 2 1/2 hours long with no breaks. I thought I was going insane. It made all the rest seem like nothing.

[Juleigh21 in reply to Iona60]

Iona60 I'd be spasming so much if I had to lay still for 2 1/2 hours.😳 I always stiffen up if I don't move.

[Iona60 in reply to Juleigh21]

Juleigh21 I probably couldn't tolerate a long one now. The spasticity came for me as the years went by.

[WAshingtongirl]

Talk about slow!! I've been reading this thread since you first posted it, Juleigh21 , and I just 'got' the magnet. 😳 I don't know whether to laugh 😂 or quietly slip away out of embarrassment. 😶Ha! I'll laugh. 😂🤣

[Juleigh21 in reply to WAshingtongirl]

Hahaha -thanks for the chuckle. I always try to hide it when I get something way later than someone else. Our MS brains.....are slowww

Yaay, Juleigh21 ! Hopefully you're done for another 6 months. Unfortunately, you do tend to get used to it. Best, Sukie427

[bxrmom]

Juleigh21 Glad they are done for you!! Hope you get the results you are hoping for when you go to your neuro for a follow up next month! Keep us updated when you can.
