I guess that's why I question the emphasis placed on the MRI.

The MRI is a wonderful diagnostic tool but are doctors relying too much on them and not looking at the whole picture the way doctors had to do before the MRI.

No Lady Express I do not want to go back to them dropping us in a hot bathtub

I had a MRI about a year and a half ago - first time since I was dx'd.
