MRI

Well, today was the MRI. It was with and without contrast to assure that they could differentiate between scar tissue from my previous back surgeries and new issues. It was very difficult to remain flat on my back in one position while they completed the MRI. It was extremely painful and I ended up with some spasms. My toes and fingers were numb and I required assistance getting off the machine when it was over. I guess it took about 45 minutes total. The tech told me it should take about three days for my doctor to receive the results and that I would have to follow up with the doctor for a copy of the results if needed. I feel bad today. I will not spend time detailing why but I did want to post as I have made a committment to myself to do so daily. Getting out of the house today was nice. The fresh air and sunshine did lift my mood for a moment. I will try to get in bed now and see if sleep will be possible. Hopefully I will rest some. I am exhausted.
