Take copy of the CD home? If I request that at my MRI next week, will they likely look at me like I'm crazy or will they actually give me a copy that day?

They've given me a copy before and I didn't even have to ask. I think they probably will.

MRI's
 

Hi Pickle-

I had my most recent MRI of the brain and of the c-spine, taken with and without contrast, last fall at my local hospital.

I was immediately handed a cd of each film's results. For some reason I could view the brain films, but I just couldn't view the c-spine cd except for the "microfilm" pics - the teensy ones. I just couldn't get them to enlarge on my pc. It was probably because my pc's not the newest ... I'm still on Vista! :eek:

My last mri's before that were probably 8-10 years ago. I don't think anyone got copies back then. But I did request a copy of the written report after they were read back then. At that time, it seemed pretty depressing:

Brain film: Lesions (white spots) "too numerous to count". Scary quote.

But guess what? After many years with MS, not ONE of those numerous lesions have caused even the tiniest of my MS symptoms! In my case, my problems have all been caused by several larger lesions along my C and T spine. I've found that's typical for PP MS'ers.

Good luck to you. You've come to the right place for support, experience and knowledge about MS.
