Thank you all for your warm wishes. Boring results I am sure, but I have not got them yet. Great sleep, thankyou valium and I warned the nurse I was a crybaby so be gentle with the needle. She was that was good, and I had one valium left so a long sleep last night. 15 milligrams (mg) valium, so good.
As I say, know yourself and ask firmly for what you want. In magnetic resonance images (MRI) "YOU" have to stay perfectly still, take a valium "YOU" are relaxed and staying still is much easier. The higher ther TESLA the machine the more accurate I believe. 3T is very good 1T is close to standard is what is around here but 3T can be found if you look around. Tube is more accurate than the open versions so I am told by a tech. Changing facilities if "YOU" can is not bad as they do get a little lazy reading your results.
It pays to be knowledgeable about our disease and its treatment. Doctors are a useful necessity as are nurses, Find a good one and ask them questions. There is no need to become an expert, though it is fun to try to become one. There is a "HUGE" need for "YOU" to learn your illness and how it effects "YOU". Do not just be a pill popper be an active participant in your very long ms life and its care. There is nothing to fear, there are just very "NEW" things to understand.
We are on an every changing beach and we are but a grain of sand. The waves of ms crash upon us moving us hither and frow, where we stop each day may be different but we are still on that beach, doing our best to be stable but accepting that movement and changing circumstances are part of our multiple sclerosis Ims) lives.
Learn my friend, learn all that "YOU" can from as many sources that "YOU" can. There is not one expert, all have something to offer, if it is only as a warning as to what to avoid. Carry on compose yourself at every roadblock that "YOU" encounter, Remember that "YOU" can "YOU ail YOU" are doing this ms life. Believe in he ultimate source of strength. that flame burning inside of YOU.
