Default MRA...an mri of the arteries...but what are they looking for?

Went to neuro today. told him all my symptoms...especially how i don't sleep...just a somber state. I take xanax at night and he increased it..but also suggested taking it during the day. even the smallest dose i can't take...i'm a zombie all day. Can't function enough to take care of the kids.

every noise bothers me...even my own voice vibrates in my head.
everything overstimulates me..even just conversations---and I barely leave the house. I'm in a constant headache and lately facial pain. Told him about the pain in my inner ear and above it too.

so he ordered another mri and an mra... didn't say what he was looking for...beat around that question..."well..let's see what the test has to say"

so...what's the MRA for??
