Hi everyone!
![]() Well I go tonight for my one year follow up MRI. I'll be getting the full treatment head and spine with and w/out contrast. ![]() I've got a little ![]() ![]() When they did my 1st head scan last year there were "quite a few" lesions and I had very minimal sxs until that flare. I didn't even know there was something wrong with me other than being a little ![]() ![]() The only sx I can really look back now and see is heat intolerance but even that wasn't debilitating. Since my dx and flare last February I've had sxs but it was at that point that I had developed the spinal lession which was all shiny and new at the time ![]() I guess I'm just nervous and could maybe use some Good Vibrations, maybe even A little help from my friends ![]() Thanks for being here ![]() ![]()

You have every right to feel the anxiety that you do. It's always the fear of the unknown that gets to you first. Then, after getting the results, it becomes dealing with the reality of your situation. At least this is something substantial that you can get your brain around.
Go tonight and just work your way through the long MRI process. You will be in there for about an hour and 45 minutes based on my experience for a brain and spine with and without contrast. Have some good songs remembered in your head or just sleep, if you can. My thoughts will be with you and I'll be sending you {{{{{POSITIVE VIBES}}}}}

it's always a little nervewracking to have a test and wait for results.
ask for a copy of the report and a copy of the films for your records. good luck. remember that you can have sx's without active disease and vice versa.
