Called for MRI records

[Guest guest]

Hi I called my neuro for the mri records today and he said that he

didn't have them anymore since I wasn't coming on a regular basis

like I was supposed to...he was very tacky with me. So I am back to

square one. The last mri I had was 10 years ago anyway and I bet a

lot has changed so I need a new one anyway right? I am going to

bite the bullet so to speak and make the call to that doctor in

Missouri. I just want to talk to him first before making that big

step of driving up there to see him. I will be honest I am really

scared of knowing how bad it really is. See I have snowed myself

for the past 10 years thinking this is a mild case this is no big

deal - however I now know that (or will admit that) my chiari has

progressed for me although I don't know how much since I really

never understood how bad it was to begin with. When you are 18 you

think every one is full of it and I didn't care to listen. Okay I

am done venting...when I call this doctor what do I say? What will

he want to do after we talk initially about all of this? I know I

will have to have another mri which scares me - I don't like being

trapped, but other than that what will going to a specialist

entail? Thanks for letting me rattle, I know this email was way too

long.
