Although the location may not be ideal at least you can have your MRI done and hopefully find some answers in the result. Better than waiting 6 months and going through the stress of imagining the worst. Let us know how you get on 🐸

Good luck

The journey may be a little inconvenient but at least they are taking you seriously!

Do let us know how you get on?

Sending you a healing hug,

Hi fibro10

I genuinely and sincerely hope that it went okay for you with your MRI my friend. I got lucky when I had mine as it was literally a few hundred yards away from me and I only waited about a week as I was seen as an emergency. Please take care of yourself.

All my hopes and dreams for you
