Yikes!! That is harsh.....at least you have insurance again!!! (Mom trying to be the optimist, here).

Can you take an extra meds before the MRI to make it easier to tolerate??? Muscle relaxant or Xanax or something??? I had to have an MRI done on my TMJ joint and couldn't wear the earplugs because they needed to see everything clearly in there. OH.....and they had to prop open my jaw (that HAD been happily locked closed for a few months) with some plastic torture devise for 30 minutes during some of the scans. I thought THAT was bad (MAN those things are loud). I actually tried to just "trip out" on the noise.....trying to imagine that it was pleasurable instead of torturous. I know this isn't directly applicable, I'm just trying to relate and offer support!!!

I'm so sorry you have to have the EMG done double duty this time. It SOUNDS miserable......I don't want one......no one has suggested I need one yet (thank you, thank you.....). Ok.....I'm 0 for 2 here......(Mom is trying.....can I bake you some cookies or something???).

Well.....I guess I haven't offered a BIT of helpful information here.....sorry.....hey!!.....you don't look a day over 40!!!

It's not February yet!!!
