They already have the MRI scheduled for the 7th as they are a little concerned because she has a side preference and want to rule out everything. I am feeling better and better about it over time and just want to get it over with at this point. Thanks for the information about what you had to go through.

We didn't have a CT scan or MRI either. We just did skull (to rule out crani) and neck x-rays (for the tort). No sedation involved in that. Maybe that's something they can do instead.
