Hi Dana!!
I remember you, though I don't think we've ever talked much! I thought of you often while watching the weather and flooding that was going on over there on the islands.


I can not stand MRI's the vibration launches me into orbit.... then again I can't stand any vibrations.... something as simple as someone using a paper shredder is enough to send me in to outer space....


It usually takes a long time for my pain levels to come down.


I hope your pain goes down soon.

hi dana,

nice to see u here!

i have had only one mri and i hope they found everything they needed because i will NEVER have another.........well, not without general anesthesia anyway.......took me days to get my pain levels under control.....also took me about an hour before i could go home because both arms went numb from the vibes and the noise.....it's an UGLY test!

hope u feel better quickly.

I don't know if I should just cry or give gentle hugs to those who have had this problem. I do find comfort in knowing that I don't stand alone.

What I do find unusual is why all of a sudden after 8+ years of having RSD would this MRI send me into LALA land. I've had MRI's before and never had a problem. Why did this one send me to my limit on the pain scale almost immediately. I did hang on and somehow I did make it through the test, but I'm definately going to be very cautious the next time I have one.

My doctor is not in today, so I don't know what the results are yet. I'll let you all know.

Abbie, hello...I do remember you.

Dana
