Nervous. Very Nervous. My first MRI of my back, I kicked screamed and crawled out of the thing within 20 seconds. It took 5 ativan to put me in the second time, and even then, I was a nervous wreck. That was a 30 minute scan. Brain scans are longer, right? How in the hell am I going to get through this? :C

Also, what do you guys do to handle the constant nerve pain? I feel like I have constant flu aches on top of the random zapping/electric pains. Neurontin and lorazepam is suddenly not helping, and I'm uncoordinated as ever. Feel like i'm progressively getting worse. I've only found relief with low doses of hydrocodone. Do drs prescribe that for break-through nerve pain? I don't know how to function yet. I haven't found the coping mechanisms, and I just want one hour without pain!
