hello and welcome to NT,

i couldn't have said the answer better than snoopy and batman.

when you do see your neurologist ask for a copy of that visit's dictation.
start a medical file for yourself. those notes will be very informative and refresh your memory of the visit.

You can ask for a hard copy of your records, OR if you have one, take a thumb drive with you, and see if they'll just copy the records onto the thumb drive for you. Takes less time, and they don't have to print out the hard copy, potentially charging you for the paper, and the work of an office worker to do that.

Also, less to carry if you have a huge file.

In addition to the report, you may want to ask for a CD/DVD with the actual images. Various specialists may want to see the pictures for themselves and in the future your Drs may want to compare MRIs over time to get a better sense of how things are going.
