MRI

So today i was privaleged with getting to do yet ANOTHER MRI. as many of you know i had to get one when i was 10 due to a disease in my leg. and as many of you also know, i have been having back problems all summer. so my doctor decided i need a scan to make sure it was connected to my leg. so i had to lay on a table similar to this one and then you get put inside this little tiny tube. just to help the image along, you can see the outside that is flat with the 3 gray marks, then it slopes down to the angled part, then it slopes again into the enclosed tube. well my head was right underneath where it becomes the enclosed tube. so they did a lumbar scan (lower back) for 25 minutes, a pelvic scan for 25 minutes, then they had to give me an injection of dye and do another scan for 10 minutes. so that whole time (which ended up being a litte over an hour) i had to HOLD STILL! no moving!!! AAAAAAAH! it was really hard! and they way an MRI works is by a bunch of magnets banging together to make loud knocks and sounds! it is soooooooo lound! oh well i survived! so the scan came back clear and there is nothing wrong with my lymph glands (which were screwed up with my leg), spine, kidneys, or nerves! so now i will try to make any inflamation go down with ibuprofen, or have to do physical therapy! fun fun! so any way! coming up in kendee's medical future....possible thyroid medications, and a tonsil removal! now that i have bored you with all of this crumb....toodles!
